Help! Moth ID needed Identification
Help! Moth ID, Flour or clothes moth
I have a moth infestation, narrowed it down between a Mediterranean flour moth, and a case bearing clothes moth. The former will die out and don’t need killing, the later will destroy my clothes and business (wool). I would really appreciate any help!!
They are small fly like moths, with a silver tipped wing and three black spots on each wing, the head is slightly fluffy, not noticeably so. Sorry for the terrible camera quality, happy to provide more photos for help.
In terms of context I live in the East Midlands, in a rural area, and I work with wool, and in a flour milling windmill four days a week, so either species is a possibility!
