    We kill adult moths we see in the house and hoover up any larvae casing you see over winter. They're typically laid near a food source like a carpet, rug or in a wardrobe. You can also put infected items in the freezer for a week to kill any larvae that might be there, but personally we find them quite easy to spot with the naked eye.
