Moths are undesirable "neighbors" that need to be dealt with from the moment they are discovered.

If this is not done, the pest will be able to cause significant damage to our clothes.

However, first it is worth understanding why moths appear in an apartment in the first place.

What are the main reasons?

Storage errors

It is important to periodically sort out, wash or at least hang things outdoors. If you keep a closet or chest of drawers closed on a permanent basis, it will become an ideal habitat for moths.

Therefore, it is worth tidying up your closets at least once a month.

Cleanliness of clothes

It is important to understand that only clean and fresh things should be put in the closet. If you neglect this rule, two troubles may arise at once.

The first is that moths will appear. The second is that the closet will soon become a source of unpleasant odor.

Temperature and humidity readings

It is worth knowing that moths love dark, warm and humid rooms. If you do not want to face the appearance of an insect, then the conditions should not be so comfortable.

At the very least, it's worth monitoring humidity levels.
