One of nature's rubbish recyclers,
the larvae of the Brown House-moth eat debris. Usually found in
outhouses, they can be a pest in homes where, like Clothes Moth
larvae, they eat organic fabrics. |

The White-shouldered House-moth
looks similar to the Brown House-moth but with white head and
shoulders. It is also usually found in outhouses and storehouses but
can be found in the home. Another of nature's recyclers, it's
larvae eat
animal and plant debris, which is fine in bird's nests but not so
good when eating flour/grain/dried food or dead insect specimens. |
