Pantry moths and clothes moths in Montreal
Pantries, closets and rugs: we find the source and treat it.
Pantry moths, such as the Indian meal moth, lay eggs in flour, cereal, nuts, rice or pet food. You first notice small moths in the kitchen, then larvae and fine silk threads in food.
Clothes moths attack wool, silk and rugs. In both cases, the most important step is to find and remove the source.
Signs to watch for
Small moths flying in the kitchen, especially in the evening
