Why moths turn up in Logan Square
Logan Square is greystone two-flats and courtyard buildings along the historic boulevard system, with a mature street-tree canopy. Clothes moth larvae feed on wool, cashmere, silk, fur and feathers, and Chicago's long coat-storage season gives them six undisturbed months to work; the damage is done before anything is unpacked in the autumn, and it is the larvae doing it, not the adults you see flying.
What drives it here specifically: garden and basement units below grade, the tree canopy and parkway plantings that hold moisture, and back porches that give access to every floor. As for timing, the damage is done in the closed season and found when storage is opened — which is why the calls cluster in spring and again in autumn.
Moths look for dark, undisturbed places holding natural protein fibre — the back of a wardrobe, a stored winter coat, the underside of a rug beneath furniture that never moves — which is where the inspection starts, and why the first visit is spent finding the source rather than spraying the rooms you have already seen them in. In The Boulevards and the rest of Logan Square, that usually means checking what the property adjoins as well as the property itself.

What does moth control cost in Logan Square?
Logan Square is greystone two-flats and courtyard buildings along the historic boulevard system, with a mature street-tree canopy, and that is what sets the price — the size of the property, how it is built and how far the problem has already gone.

Is moth treatment safe for children and pets?
Treatment is organic and IPM-led, which means the first move is to find and remove what is drawing moths in rather than to spray broadly. Where a product is used it goes to dark, undisturbed places holding natural protein fibre — the back of a wardrobe, a stored winter coat, the underside of a rug beneath furniture that never moves rather than into open living space, and you will be told before the work starts exactly what is being used and what the re-entry time is.
Do you treat rental units and condo buildings in Logan Square?
Yes — houses, condominiums, apartments and commercial units. In Logan Square that matters more than usual, because garden and basement units below grade, the tree canopy and parkway plantings that hold moisture, and back porches that give access to every floor. Where a building shares walls, stacks or a management company, say so when you call: treating one unit in isolation on a shared structure is the most common reason a moths problem comes straight back.
