Aerosol moth killer on any wool rugs/carpets and the rent o kill papers in wardrobes and drawers and on the hangers of suits/coats/knitwear/silk ties. Write the date on the papers and remember to buy more each year.
The papers keep the moths away but will not kill the worms. The spray kills both but will stink so best spray and leave the house for a bit.
We vacuum bag some winter clothing with a paper over the summer.
In an older property with lots of fitted carpets it’s more difficult with all the places they hide in and any furniture over carpet with a small gap underneath will have to be moved to spray.
Not had any moth trouble now but our flat was renovated and no carpets only rugs so easier to deal with any outbreaks but due to the above we haven’t had any problems.
If it’s really bad those smoke bomb things are meant to work.
