Textile pests, such as carpet beetles and clothes moths, can be difficult to detect until they’ve caused noticeable damage to fabrics. Common signs of a textile pest issue include:
- Beetle sightings – you may see adult beetles or the larvae (woolly bears). Adults will sometimes be found in groups on windowsills as they are attracted to daylight
- Moth sightings – you may see adult moths flying or scuttling around in the evening, or you might see the larvae on their food material
- Bird nests – if you have bird nests in your loft this may be where the beetles are coming from
- Damaged carpets and clothes – with carpets, particularly look for damage in dark and undisturbed corners and underneath furniture
- Vergo uses pheromone monitors which lure male moths to a sticky trap
