I've recently discovered that I have clothes moths at home. I'm pretty sure they are casemaking (found some empty cases under a rug and in a couple of sweaters but have yet to find live larvae). I've already caught an adult catching a ride on me and I'm concerned about infesting our collection area. Since it's at home I'm willing to take more drastic measures than I would at work. Does anyone have suggestions beyond thorough cleaning, inspection and bringing everything to the dry cleaners? I've found them throughout my apartment. I am hesitant to call an exterminator unless it's necessary.
