Case-bearing Clothes Moth (larva)

Indoor environments, particularly in closets, drawers, or upholstery containing natural fibers.

Larvae feed on keratins found in natural animal fibers such as wool, silk, fur, hair, and feathers.

Larvae construct a portable silken case incorporating debris and fiber. They remain hidden inside this case while feeding and dragging it behind them; they eventually pupate inside the same case.

Risks include significant damage to clothing, carpets, and household fabrics. They pose no direct health risk to humans but are considered a destructive household pest.
