Prevention with cedarwood and lavender

To prevent moths from invading your wardrobe, you can use natural repellents such as cedar blocks or lavender sachets. Both of these products are effective in repelling moths and preventing them from taking up residence in your closet. In addition, you need to keep your closet clean and organized, vacuuming and decluttering regularly to remove potential hiding places for insects.

Comprehensive cleaning

If you are faced with a moth problem, a thorough cleaning is necessary to completely eliminate it. Remove all clothes and accessories from the closet and vacuum the inside, making sure to clean every nook and cranny.

Walls, shelves, and baseboards should be wiped down to destroy any eggs and larvae present. After cleaning, it is very important to wash or dry-clean all clothing before returning it to the closet to effectively kill all moths and larvae.

Adjusting the temperature

Moths live in warm and humid conditions, so controlling the temperature in the closet is very important to prevent them. Using a dehumidifier to reduce the humidity level in the air creates an environment that is less favorable for the pest to survive. In addition, keeping the temperature in the cabinet lower can further reduce moth activity and reproduction.
