Moths are not a hygiene problem
Clean houses get moths. Antique dealers get moths. Insurance adjusters find moth damage in rugs that have not moved in forty years. The issue is natural fibre and environment — not cleanliness.
Our treatment uses non-toxic elimination that is safe for wool, silk, and natural dyes, paired with a cleaning to remove larvae and eggs. We then wrap vulnerable pieces in a protective storage wrap on request.
