Area Rug Moth/Insect Control
Insects are a major concern when found in wool rugs. We offer a product that is safe for children and pets. This is not an insecticide that kills the larvae, it changes the “flavor” of the wool and acts as a deterrent to insect larvae eating your rug.
Moths and carpet beetles are a major concern when found in fine rugs. The damage is done when the moth is in the larval stage. The larvae feed on wool, silk, and animal hair. We offer a product that will act as a deterrent and actually makes the rug bitter to their taste. this product is not toxic to children or pets, it is a very safe product.
This process is very important before storing rugs. While there are no guarantees that moths will ever return, cleaning and treatment is the best method to combat this problem.
Our Cleaning Process
At Bear Oriental Rug Cleaning, we take pride in our comprehensive 9-step area rug insect control process.
We start by thoroughly inspecting your rug to identify any insect damage, and then create a personalized treatment plan. Our deep cleaning method removes dirt, larvae, and debris, preparing the rug for treatment.
We apply eco-friendly insecticides to eliminate pests, focusing on safely treating delicate natural fibers like wool and silk. We also remove eggs and larvae hidden deep within the fibers, ensuring the infestation cycle is broken.
After cleaning, we apply preventative treatments to protect your rug from future infestations. Our final inspection guarantees that the pests are gone, and we offer expert care advice tailored to New Mexico’s unique climate. This not only addresses current insect problems but also ensures long-term protection for your rugs.
Whether you’re dealing with an active infestation or looking to prevent one, we’ve got you covered. We’ll keep your rugs safe, clean, and in great condition, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re protected for years to come.
