In fact, this is the larvae of the clothing moth.
The naturalist magazine said that the larvae of the clothing moth would weave a bag of silk and dust, live in it themselves, and eat the fibers and hair of the clothes, etc., and put camphor to prevent it.
So, how to control the clothing moth?
Although the clothing moth does not bite humans or infectious pathogens, mainly can destroy clothing, etc., but its reproduction is fast, often sudden disaster, resulting in irreparable losses. In terms of prevention and control, the usual emphasis is on prevention, and timely governance has emerged.

2, keep clean: in the home environment, remove all the clothes from the wardrobe, clean the folding place, and expose them to the sun for several hours. Dry cleaning and wet washing should be ironed and sealed in plastic bags.
3. Remove the clothing moth and slow down the reproduction: use a powerful vacuum cleaner to clean the carpet edge to remove some insect-like clothing moths, and assist the dehumidification equipment to reduce the humidity in the environment and reduce or slow down the reproduction of the clothing moth.
