Comprehensive solutions to eliminate moths and protect your rugs
Thorough examination to identify infestation extent and damage severity
Chemical-free freezing kills all moth life stages without harming fibers
Full immersion wash removes larvae, eggs, and debris from all rug layers
Ongoing protection recommendations to keep your rugs moth-free
Moth larvae don't just sit on your rug — they actively feed on natural fiber proteins, particularly keratin found in wool, silk, and animal hair. As they eat, fibers weaken and break, leading to permanent damage that can be expensive or impossible to repair.
Early detection is crucial. See real restoration results on our Before & After page to understand what professional moth treatment can achieve.
A thorough, multi-step approach to completely eliminate moths and protect your rugs
We thoroughly examine your rug to identify infestation extent, damage severity, and the best treatment approach for your specific fiber type.
Your rug is carefully sealed and exposed to deep-freeze temperatures that kill moth eggs, larvae, and adults without chemicals.
Your rug is fully submerged and flushed to remove dead moths, larvae casings, eggs, and debris from every layer.
After cleaning, we evaluate any fiber damage and discuss repair options if needed to restore your rug's appearance.
Rugs are dried in a controlled environment to prevent mildew, color bleeding, and shrinkage while ensuring thorough moisture removal.
We verify complete moth elimination before returning your fresh, clean rug with free delivery throughout Metro Atlanta.
Our Professional Deep Freeze Chamber
Industrial-grade freezing eliminates moths at all life stages without chemicals
Eco-Friendly Moth Treatment
Safe for delicate fibers and dyes while 100% effective against moth infestations
DIY methods often fail because they don't eliminate all life stages of moths
Deep freeze treatment kills eggs, larvae, and adults — ending the entire lifecycle.
No toxic pesticides or residue — safe for your family, pets, and the environment.
Expert handling protects dyes, fibers, and construction — especially important for Oriental and antique rugs.
Full immersion removes debris, dirt, and moth remnants from every layer of your rug.
We handle everything from pickup to delivery for rugs 8' x 10'+ throughout Metro Atlanta.
Cedar chips, mothballs, and home vacuuming only address visible adults and some larvae. Moth eggs hidden deep in rug fibers survive these treatments and hatch weeks later, restarting the infestation. Professional deep freeze treatment reaches every layer and eliminates the entire lifecycle.
Our moth removal service is safe for all types of natural fiber rugs. Moths primarily target wool, silk, and other animal-based fibers, so these rugs are at highest risk. We tailor our treatment approach based on fiber type, construction, and the extent of infestation.
Don't wait until the damage gets worse — early treatment protects your rug
Small worn circles or threadbare areas where larvae have eaten through fibers.
White larvae, webbing, or small cylindrical casings in dark undisturbed areas.
Adult moths (small, beige or gray) flying near rugs, carpets, or closets.
An unusual musty smell emanating from your rug or textile surfaces.
DIY methods risk incomplete treatment on valuable pieces — professional care is essential.
Rugs that have been in storage — dark, undisturbed areas are ideal moth habitats.
Regular maintenance reduces the risk of moth problems and protects your investment. Follow these preventive measures, especially important given protecting rugs in humid environments like Atlanta:
