Case-bearing Clothes Moth (larva)

Indoor environments, particularly in closets, drawers, or under furniture where natural fibers are present.

Keratin-based materials including wool, silk, hair, feathers, fur, and occasionally synthetic fibers blended with natural ones.

The larva constructs a protective silken case covered in debris and fiber from its food source. It carries this case as it feeds and remains inside it to pupate.

Potential for significant damage to clothing, upholstery, and carpets. They do not pose health risks to humans or pets but are considered household pests.
