| | | Larvae I.D plzes hey hey hey
I found what looked like some fluff caught hanging off a spiders web on my bedroom wall.
when i looked a lil closer it was a tube cocoon like thing with a larvae inside.
i would love to know what it was if anyone could help me.
i live in a basement flat in Brighton and have been trying to reduce the damp, if that helps at all.
mucho thanks |

| | | Re: Larvae I.D plzes Its the larva (just one, more would be larvae) of a clothes moth, probably Tinea pellionella, walking around in its protective case, made from wool fibres, which it also eats. Check all your woollens, including wool carpets, to find the damage. There are probably several more larvae! |
