Webbing clothes moth (larva/case)

Dark, undisturbed areas inside homes, such as closets, basements, and attics, particularly where natural fibers are stored.

Keratin-rich animal fibers including wool, fur, silk, feathers, and leather; they do not eat synthetic fabrics.

Larvae spin silken tubes or mats to hide while feeding. They avoid light and prefer high humidity. The life cycle can range from one month to several years depending on conditions.

They are major household pests that cause significant damage to clothing, carpets, and upholstery. They pose no direct health risk to humans but can be economically destructive.
