Moth Control in Lewisham: what we see locally
Clothes moths are a growing problem in Lewisham's period homes, particularly in Brockley, Forest Hill, Lee and Blackheath, where Victorian houses have wool carpets, rugs and full wardrobes. Vintage clothing from Deptford Market can bring moths in too.
Central heating lets moths breed all year. We treat the affected rooms thoroughly and give practical advice on cleaning and storage.
We see moth damage in spare rooms and wardrobes in Brockley, Lee and Blackheath, and in rugs bought second-hand from Deptford Market. Damage is usually first noticed as a small hole in a jumper or a thin patch near the skirting.
Where we find moths in Lewisham
- Wardrobes: Wool, cashmere and vintage clothes are vulnerable.
- Rugs: Natural rugs are a favourite target.
