During heat treatment, we utilise specialised high-powered indirect-fired heaters to safely and efficiently increase a room’s temperature to between 49°C and 60°C, keeping it within this deadly range for an extended duration.
These industrial-grade heaters are precisely calibrated to achieve the specific temperatures required to eradicate carpet moths at all stages of their life cycle, including eggs, which are often unaffected by chemical treatments.
Heat treatment works by disrupting the vital proteins and enzymes that carpet moths depend on for survival. This approach targets the pest biologically, ensuring thorough elimination. Unlike chemical treatments, which may not penetrate deep hiding places, heat seeps into every nook and cranny — leaving carpet moths with no chance to escape.

Yes, heat treatment is a chemical-free method, making it safe for humans and pets. However, it’s advisable to vacate the premises during the treatment process.
Insecticide sprays may not kill moth eggs during the initial application. Multiple treatments ensure that newly hatched carpet moth larvae are eradicated, breaking the life cycle and thoroughly eliminating any carpet moth problem.
Regular vacuuming, maintaining low humidity levels, and storing natural fibre items properly can help prevent moth infestations. Our technicians will provide detailed preventative advice tailored to your situation.

Yes, but it’s a straightforward process — and we’ll guide you every step of the way. You’ll receive a simple advice sheet with clear instructions about what to do before a clothes moth treatment. It includes which items to remove, how to declutter key areas, and which personal items (like clothing, bedding, and other natural materials) may need to be washed on a hot cycle before or after treatment.
There’s no need to overhaul your entire space — just a few easy tasks to make sure the heat treatment works safely and effectively.
Carpet moths can enter homes through open windows, doors, or cracks, or they may hitch a ride on second-hand rugs, furniture, or clothing. They thrive in dark corners, undisturbed areas like under furniture or in closets.
The timeline to get rid of carpet moths depends on the severity of the infestation and the treatment method. Heat treatments can often be treated in a single day and chemical sprays over 3-4 visits.
Easy preventive measures include regular hoovering, especially in hidden areas, and storing rugs or textiles in airtight containers can help. Using moth repellents and keeping your home well-ventilated also reduces the risk of re-infestation and the need for carpet moth treatments.
Moth heat treatment is the quickest and most effective method. It works by raising the temperature of an infested area or item to a level that is lethal to moths in all life stages—eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults (above 49°C for a sustained period). This non-chemical carpet moth control method penetrates fabrics, furniture, or stored goods, effectively to kill carpet moths without leaving harmful residues, making moth heat treatment a popular choice for eco-conscious pest control.

DIY carpet moth killer kits, moth killer spray, and carpet moth foggers may offer short-term relief, but they often miss hidden lifecycle stages like eggs and larvae. Professional heat treatments and targeted insecticides are the most effective method to eliminate textile pests, especially in large infestations. Left unchecked, adult carpet moths will continue laying eggs, making it hard for over-the-counter moth control products to fully resolve the problem.
A carpet moth treatment kit usually includes a spray bottle and pesticides, but without expert application, it’s easy to miss areas where moths lay eggs or larvae feed. DIY kits rarely penetrate deep into fibres where dead larvae or carpet beetles might be hiding. These pests thrive in materials like wool, feathers, and silk, creating a safe haven if not fully treated. Professionals target all lifecycle stages for complete eradication.
Many people try to just lightly spray a few bursts of moth killer, but it rarely reaches deep nesting sites or disrupt the breeding cycle. Even a successful moth spray may miss dead moths, eggs, or larvae embedded in rugs. To truly kill carpet moth infestations, professionals use specialised techniques—sometimes including diatomaceous earth or heat—to fully eliminate food source areas and stop reinfestation.
To treat delicate fabrics or sentimental items like silk, professionals often freeze infested items to stop the development of adult carpet moths. While DIY users may rely on a carpet moth killer or sprays, freezing is a non-chemical alternative that preserves fragile items. This is essential for complete moth control without damaging your belongings.
