Webbing clothes moth (larvae/cases)

Dark, undisturbed areas within homes, such as closets, chests, and storage areas where natural fibers are kept.

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

Larvae often spin silken tunnels or patches as they feed. Unlike many moths, adults are sensitive to light and prefer crawling to flying.

Significant risk as a domestic pest that destroys clothing, upholstery, and carpets. They provide no direct benefit to the household ecosystem but help decompose animal remains in nature.
