The adult insect, or clothes moth, which may be seen flying shout it practically any season of the year in heated houses, does not eat the fab rics. It Is seeking a good place to lay Its egps, so that when the larva or worm hatches it will have Its favorite food right at hand. The larvae eat the fabric on the surface of the furni ture and also ?et under the cover and eat the wool threads that go through to the back. Many manufacturers now treat fab rics to be used for furniture covers to make them resistant to moth at tack. Another precaution taken by the manufacturer Is to place a layer of cotton batting between the padding and the cover of the piece of furni ture. It Is essential that this layer of eotton batting should be continuous, without breaks through which the moths ran work their way to the un der side of the fabric. Fumigation at the warehouse or by the furniture dealer Is also used to assure freedom from Infestation In the piece when It Is delivered to the purchaser. In buying upholstered furniture, the choice of leather, silk, cotton, linen, or rayon covers eliminates the moth prob lem from the start.
