The damages moths bring to your home is just one thing to worry about. In fact, the shed-off scales of their wings and their feces can cause allergic reactions.

Clothes moths multiply quickly. Generally, the female can produce up to 50 eggs in a 3-week time. Unfortunately, they usually attach their eggs to clothes and textiles. Therefore, when the eggs hatch after 10 days, their hungry larvae start feeding resulting in awful damage.
