“What’s Eating You 2?” Mothmageddon
The higher the wool content of the carpets and rugs the more appealing to the carpet moth. When the larvae hatch they can munch through the carpet, curtains and upholstery.
“Found an infestation of carpet moth.”
“Found an infestation of carpet moth, since the treatment no signs of the little blighters, checked wardrobes and as a precaution have treated them as well. Thank you so much.”

Stuart Anderson, Acana’s Managing Director, says his company was inspired to develop the Acana Carpet & Fabric Moth Spray after receiving a call from a distraught homeowner.
“A woman from Cambridge rang our offices in tears,” he recalls. “She said, ‘I’m at my wit’s end. I just don’t know what to do!’
“Turns out she’d returned home after a 10-day holiday in Spain to discover an entire square foot of carpet in her study had been eaten away by moth larvae. ‘All that’s left are strands of the backing,’ she wailed. ‘I’ve covered it with a rug but I can’t rest because I know there’s now a hole in my carpet. I can’t sleep because I’m worried sick about what they’ll do next!’
“At the time we didn’t have any instant action products in our Moth Range but because of her obvious distress we wanted to remedy that situation and to help people facing a similar situation in the future. We quickly developed the Acana Carpet & Fabric Moth Spray, which provides an instant solution for situations like this.”
