Household Casebearer moth

Typically found indoors in humid, tropical or subtropical environments, often seen crawling on walls or ceilings.

Larvae feed on spider webs, wool, human hair, fur, and other natural fibers.

The larva builds a flattened, spindle-shaped case from silk, sand, and dust which it drags along as it moves. It can protrude its head from either end of the case to feed.

Generally considered a household pest as they can damage natural fiber textiles or clothes. They pose no direct health risk to humans or pets.
