If the moths are eating the carpets then either remove the carpets completely, or replace wool carpets with synthetic ones.
Fill in small gaps around the walls, floorboards, and cupboards. You want to reduce the amount of places the moths have to hide, feed and lay their eggs.
Further reduce the number of places that moths can hide themselves or their eggs by keeping your home tidy. They love dark undisturbed areas under the bed, or behind junk that you may leave on the floor. If your home stays uncluttered and clean there are fewer places for them to go.
Keep windows shut so the moths can’t get in. Consider putting an insect screen over windows that you regularly open.
Open curtains and let as much natural light into the rooms as possible. Clothes moths seem to prefer it when it is darker.
Don’t leave clothes or other natural fabrics in the open unless necessary.
Keep the doors of clothing cupboards and wardrobes shut. Ideally they should be sealed shut so that a live moth or larvae can’t crawl through the gaps. You could make modifications to your wardrobes using rubber strips (e.g. like the ones for excluding draughts from windows) so that they have a near air tight seal when closed.
Vacuum regularly as stated in the daily tips. A vacuum cleaner with a rotating brush in the head may be better than a suction only vacuum cleaner at dislodging eggs that are in the carpet.
Borax as in 20 mule team laundry borax will kill insects and their eggs. Contractors use it all the time. I put in a glass jar, poke lots of holes in lid, sprinkle on carpets, and furniture, and vacumn up in 3 hours. Safe for pets and humans. Will need to redo at the next hatching until no more come up.
Take one of the moths in a plastic bag to the hardware store and ask the staff if they have a pheramone trap for this species of moth. Hang in closets and each room.
I would like to know how to get rid those pesty little sink/drain flies. I've tried baking soda and vinegar, drain cleaners and put plastic over the drains.
