Why Astoria Has a Clothes Moths Problem
Astoria's mix of vintage brownstones, prewar co-ops, and converted industrial lofts creates ideal conditions for clothes moth infestations, especially in buildings with shared ventilation systems and older closet spaces.

Why Choose Us for Clothes Moth Control in Astoria
Clothes moths are stealth destroyers — the adult moths don't actually eat fabric, it's the larvae that feed on natural fibers like wool, cashmere, silk, and fur, often causing significant damage before you notice. Our treatment begins with a thorough inspection of closets, drawers, storage areas, and any textiles showing damage to identify the infestation extent and locate larval feeding sites. We apply residual insecticide to closet interiors, shelf surfaces, carpet edges, and other fabric storage areas, and deploy pheromone monitoring traps to capture adult males and measure population levels. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.
