Protect Your Rugs
moth prevention
Don't let your beautiful investments disappear. To
prevent moths from damaging your rugs we treat both sides
your rugs with Repel®, a special 100% naturally
child-safe, 
pet-safe and environmentally-safe formula
that prevents moths from ever nesting in your rugs by
changing the 'taste' of the wool. Your rugs are left with
a odorless, colorless and textureless protective coat
that moths just don't like the taste of. Don't wait for
signs of moth damage, get your rugs treated with Repel®
today!
We guarantee our Repel® formula to protect your rugs against moths for up to one year. If your rugs are washed, the Repel® formula will wash off with it. After that, a simple re-application of Repel® with protect your rugs for another year.
Already Have Moths?
If your rugs already show signs of moth infestation or damage, we have a separate moth treatment. Your rugs are sprayed on both sides with Q128®, known as the 'Gold Standard of Disinfectant' and is widely used for a variety of cleaning purposes and pest control. Once the moths are in the adult stage, they can cause no more harm to your carpets except by laying eggs. Moth eggs are extremely difficult to kill as they can survive in many extreme environments. Fortunately, our Q128® formula is strong enough to kill moth eggs on contact.
Next, your rugs are wrapped up with the Q128® treatment and isolated for weeks at a time to ensure that no moth eggs have survived. After the isolation period has ended, the rugs are unwrapped, thoroughly scrubbed on both sides, and rinsed thoroughly. The rugs are then dusted and vacuumed. This treatment has now exterminated any and all moths that were nesting in the rugs.
Typically, moths like quiet, dark areas that are undisturbed for long periods of time. Examples included, parts of rugs under beds, chairs and sofas as well as rugs in low-traffic rooms. Rugs that have just been washed typically aren't at risk of moth re-infestation for 3-6 months because they have been disturbed and are 'too clean' for their taste. To prevent future moth problems, simply have your rug treated with Repel® or ensure that all areas of your rugs are vacuumed at least once a month.
The good news is that almost all moth damage can be repaired. In many cases, the original foundation is in tact as most many rugs have a cotton foundation which moths don't eat.
Moth Proof Bundles for Long Term Storage
If you are storing your rugs, we recommend you have them wrapped in a moth proof bundle which is guaranteed moth free for ten years if unopened. We recommend the rug to be cleaned if it has not been washed in the last two years. The rugs are sprayed on both sides with Repel® and double-wrapped in an air tight seal. Delicate rugs are wrapped on a pole ensuring a safe storage. If you would like to have your rugs stored with us, rug storage in our plant is available.
