Preventing Clothes Moth Infestations at Home

A specialist advises treating stored clothes with five percent DDT solution around closet walls baseboards and in drawers. Garments may be lightly dusted or sprayed on both sides. Female moths lay eggs on fabric, eggs hatch in three to four days to a few weeks, and larvae spin silken shelters as they feed on wool hair fur and related items. For more, request L-156 Clothes Moths from local county extension agent.
