What Our Treatment Includes
1. Full Site Inspection
Our expert technicians begin with a detailed inspection of your property to determine:
-
The type of moth causing the problem
-
Extent of infestation
-
Areas of active larvae and eggs
This ensures your treatment plan is tailored to the severity and location of the problem.
2. ULV Fogging & Insecticide Spray
We use licensed, professional insecticides applied with a course sprayer and Ultra Low Volume (ULV) fogging machine. This:
-
Reaches hidden cracks and fibres
-
Eliminates adults, larvae and eggs
-
Creates a residual barrier to prevent re-infestation
Our pesticides are carefully selected to be effective while safe for homes and commercial spaces.
3. Heat Treatment (If Required)
For stubborn infestations β especially in lofts, wardrobes, carpets or heritage spaces β we offer professional heat treatment.
This involves raising temperatures to above 56 Β°C for around 2 hours to kill all life stages of moths. Heat treatment is:
Chemical-free
Penetrative (reaches deep into fabrics, wood & insulation)
Highly effective for large-scale infestations
Heat kills insects at all life stages because they cannot survive high temperatures.
πΏ Organic & Chemical-Free Options
If you prefer a less chemical approach, we can design an organic clothes moth treatment programme using targeted heat, non-chemical solutions and environmental steps.
π Why Professional Treatment Works Better
While homeowners often try DIY methods like vacuuming or natural repellents, these usually donβt address all life stages of the pest β especially eggs and larvae deep in fibres or crevices. bpca.org.uk
Professional techniques:
-
Target hidden areas
-
Use specialised equipment

Provide guaranteed results and repeat visits if necessary
