Common Moth Problems in Colorado Springs

Not all moths are the same, and identifying the type of moth in your home is the first step toward effective control. In the Colorado Springs area, homeowners typically encounter a few common culprits, each with its unique habits and the kind of trouble it can cause inside.

• Clothes Moths: These small, typically beige or tan moths are notorious for causing damage. Their larvae feed on natural fibers, leaving behind holes in wool sweaters, silk garments, carpets, and upholstered furniture. You will often find them in dark, undisturbed areas like closets or attics.
• Pantry Moths (Indian Meal Moths): Finding tiny caterpillars or webbing in your flour, cereal, pasta, or pet food is a sure sign of pantry moths. The adult moths lay eggs in stored food products, leading to contamination that requires you to throw out affected items.
• Miller Moths: Famous for their annual migration through our region, these larger, grayish-brown moths don't damage property but are a significant nuisance. They are attracted to light and can enter homes in large numbers through tiny cracks, ending up in lamps, cupboards, and virtually everywhere else.

While a few miller moths might be manageable, an infestation of clothes or pantry moths can cause costly damage and waste. A professional can accurately identify the pest and apply the correct treatment to eliminate the infestation at its source, protecting your belongings.
