Household Casebearer

Found indoors on walls, ceilings, and under furniture in warm climates, residing within a portable silk case.

Feeds on spider webs, dust, hair, shed skin, and occasionally wool or cotton fabrics.

The larva drags its flattened, seed-like case everywhere it crawls, eventually pupating inside it.

Minor household pests that can damage natural fibers and woolens, but they do not bite or transmit diseases.
