Household Casebearer

Found indoors attached to walls, under furniture, and in corners; typically prefers warm, humid environments.

Larvae feed on spider webs, woollen fabrics, hair, and organic detritus.

The larva constructs a protective silken case covered in sand, dust, and lint, which it carries while moving; it transitions into a pupa within this case before emerging as a small moth.

Primarily a domestic pest that can damage natural fiber clothing or carpets, but generally harmless to humans and pets.
