Wondering what attracts moths to your closet? Experts say cramped quarters, unwashed secondhand items, and more are common culprits.
Those overflowing piles of laundry on your closet floor can act like a buffet for moths, as can pet hair, which is another food source.
"Make sure you regularly clean any clothing or furniture your pet may shed on," advises Hodges. You'll also want to clean out the bottom of your hamper and crevices of your closet, where dust and pet hair can accumulate.Natural fibers like wool, cashmere, fur, and silk are popular with many people—and, well, moths like them too."These materials provide moths with the nutrients they need to thrive during their larval stage," says Mullins.
On the flip side, synthetic materials like polyester and nylon are less attractive to pests because they lack nutrients and organic matter. That doesn't mean you need to avoid natural fibers entirely—they're some of the best quality materials for garments—just make sure you keep them clean or store them in air-tight bags, especially during the off-season when they may sit untouched for months.
