Why Moths Are a Problem in Brookhaven
Brookhaven’s mild temperatures and humidity allow moths to stay active indoors throughout the year. Clothes moths target natural fibers like wool, silk, and fur, while pantry moths infest dried foods such as cereal, flour, rice, and pasta. These pests often go unnoticed until damage or small flying moths appear around lights, closets, or kitchens.
