ok a quick google found this:

Don't confuse the clothes moth with the common food- and grain-infesting moths that are frequently seen flying around the house.


Clothes moths usually only fly around the immediate area of the house where the infestation is found, and their flight patterns are distinctive they tend to flutter about rather than fly in a direct, steady manner like the food-infesting moths.


The most common sign and clear indication of cloth moths are varying sized holes on garments depending on the level of infestation. ]]> Mon, 07 Dec 2009 13:48:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30352&PID=863020&title=moths#863020 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30352&PID=862990&title=moths#862990 Author: FionaS

Nope Deb - these are inside moths...the sort that live in fabric etc. They were a prob even when there were no windows open (cold weather).]]> Mon, 07 Dec 2009 13:24:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30352&PID=862990&title=moths#862990 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30352&PID=862610&title=moths#862610 Author: Shezamumof3

Totally and utterly random I know (!) but...

How do you treat / get rid of household moths?

We have millions of the horrid things flying around our lounge at night! They are not in the kitchen so are not pantry moths. I'm guessing they are coming from the soft furnishings or something.

I know moth balls repell them but how to you treat an "infestation" (ewwww)? Do I need to get a pest control person in or is there a DIY solution?

Google did not help me so I hope one of you lovely ladies can :)]]> Sun, 06 Dec 2009 21:36:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30352&PID=862567&title=moths#862567
