Moth damage on rug

The moths really went to town on this poor rug, you can see all the fibers have been eaten away over a large section.  We can freeze the rug at our rug cleaning studio to kill the moths and any larvae, this will prevent them doing any further damage.

To repair a rug with this much damage will need a professional rug restorer.  See your previous blog on rug restoration to see the incredible work that The Persian Carpet Studio in Norfolk

What do carpet moths look like?

At a customers house in Royston, Cambridgeshire, whilst doing their annual carpet cleaning when we came across Moth damage in the corner of the carpet.  You can see the carpet has lost some of the fibers - a tell tale sign of moth damage.




We found a dead moth on the carpet


And underneath the carpet was evidence of further moths, you can see the husks of the carpet moth larvae

Unfortunately moth damage can spread like wild-fire if not treated correctly and quickly.
