Controlling Clothes Moths In Modesto, Oakdale, & Manteca Since 1998

Man’s earlier attempts to stop the destruction this small insect does inside closets led to the invention of the moth ball, and for that alone we should hate this pest with a passion. If you have invested money in designer clothes, expensive furs or oil paintings to decorate your home, the last thing you want to see is a clothes moth.

The moth itself is approximately 1/4″ long and has delicate silvery colored wings, but it is the behavior of the larvae that causes the most destruction. The moth lays eggs in a suitable environment, such as on wool clothing, carpets, furs, upholstered furniture and even the natural bristles on your hair brush. When the eggs hatch into the larvae or caterpillar stage, dinner is served to the ravenously hungry pest.

They can even be found munching away at the felt found inside your piano, Since the damage inside your home can amount to thousands of dollars and it is probably not covered by your home owners insurance, your best bet is to contact Onstar and have one of our technicians inspect your home for the tell tale signs of a clothes moth infestation.

Damage can often be difficult to detect, as it occurs in the folds of clothing or the crevices of furniture, and the education our technicians receive along with their Onstar uniform speaks to their proficiency. They can apply state registered and approved materials appropriate for the control of this pest. We will advise you of your treatment options, as well as strategies to help prevent the moth finding ways back into your closets, furniture and antiques.

Treatment options will be explained to your thoroughly, along with the recommended maintenance programs offered monthly or bi-monthly to keep them under control. We will also discuss ways to organize your closet, vacuuming strategies and storage solutions to minimize the destruction this small moth can do inside your home.

When you consider the cost of a grand piano, antique furniture or wall to wall carpeting, calling or emailing Onstar today makes the most economic sense.
