>>They’re the worst of tenants. They’re destructive, they eat everything in sight and they don’t know when it’s time to leave.

I had a moth infestation about 5 years ago.

I had to clean every single item to be seen and wash everything in sight.

I had the washing machine and the dryer going full-time for a month straight from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

I hired a man to steam clean the entire house.

By the time it was over, I had to throw away two beds, a sofa and a lot of clothing as the larvae were everywhere to be found in hiding. I lost and spent close to $5,000 to get rid of these damned moths. What a damn hell! I felt like burning the whole place down before it was over. That is how very bad it was.

I was told they'd come back but, being I worked so hard and for so long, I did manage to get rid of them but my what a horrible thing to suddenly be infested with. I would not wish this on anyone.

As for this type pf moth now being found, they sound like an even worse type of moth to get rid of, if at all possible!

The infestation occurred during the height of the drought in California, so yes, it was due to climate change without a doubt.

& recommend!
