Carpet Moth Chemical Treatment in Bromley – Safe & Effective Solutions
Once carpet moth larvae are established, DIY sprays rarely fix the problem fully. At Zero Pest Control, we provide professional chemical treatments in Bromley that reach the hidden larvae and provide long-term protection.
Why Chemical Treatment Works Best
Our treatments target larvae and pupae hidden deep inside carpets, rugs and upholstery, not just the adult moths you see. This ensures the infestation is eliminated from its source.
Our Treatment Process in Bromley
- Comprehensive inspection We locate all affected areas — stairs, rugs, skirting boards, under furniture.
- Pre-treatment preparation Vacuuming, moving furniture, and removing personal items to give access.
- Targeted chemical application We apply professional residual insecticides to carpet edges, under furniture, along skirting boards, and affected upholstery.
- Follow-up visit We return 10-14 days later to inspect, treat any newly hatched larvae and ensure the infestation is eliminated.
- Final assessment A thorough check to ensure damage is stopped and future risk is minimised.
Post-Treatment Expectations
- You may still spot adult moths for a short time while the residual product works
- Vacuuming should be minimised in treated zones for 7–10 days
- Follow-up visit is essential to catch hatching larvae
- Depending on carpets, additional treatments may be required
Is Chemical Treatment Safe?

Carpet Moth Treatment FAQs
1. Will I need to replace the carpet after treatment?
In most cases no — treatment can stop the larvae and prevent further damage, saving you costly replacement.
2. How long does a chemical treatment take?
Typically 30-60 minutes depending on property size and extent of infestation.
3. Can I stay at home during treatment?
You may need to vacate treated rooms for a short period — we’ll advise you beforehand.
4. Does the smell linger after treatment?
No — residual insecticides faint in odour and clear within hours.
5. How quickly will I see results? 3>
Most larvae stop feeding almost immediately, reducing damage within days. Full lifecycle elimination takes the follow-up visit.
