Acana Carpet and Fabric Moth Killer with Lavender Freshener Spray - 500 ml

From a UK buyer: having delayed dealing with carpet moths for longer than I should have, I decided to try this product as parts of my carpet had clearly been damaged. Treated 2 large rooms, followed instructions and can say the product works. The smell is okay, but still has a slight chemical odour which is understandable. The product is not cheap, but it works. Wish I’d have got it sooner. No further issues with carpet moths. Recommended product. I would suggest treating the minute you see signs of an infestation. I didn’t and it cost me my carpets. Verdict: slightly pricey but it works. Cheaper than new carpets.

I have moths living in my hallway carpet and though I usually try to avoid killing pests no amount of hoovering seemed to get rid of them. As soon as I sprayed this on you could see them react, which wasn't exactly pleasant but seemed to be effective. I was able to treat 2 sets of stairs plus the hall with about half a bottle remaining. I'm going to do a second treatment in a few days which I think would sort out the problem, for a while at least. Best part of this is that the spray actually smells quite nice and doesn't smell too chemically or caustic as you might imagine a product designed to kill things might do! I would say that the trigger was quite stiff on the bottle I received so an elderly person or someone with small hands might struggle a bit. There was also a small amount of spray that landed/dripped onto the hand holding the trigger so I just held the bottle with a cloth and washed my hands well after and didn't have any issues with irritation etc. My housemate has sensitive skin so I warned him there was spray on the carpets but he didn't notice anything so I'd say still be cautious when using this but don't worry if some of it gets on your skin.

I dont like the smell of lavender but was prepared to try this to nip in the bud a small moth problem in my flat. This has a very strong scent of lavender which has given me headaches. I sprayed my bedroom in the morning and had the windows open all day but I could not sleep in the room that night because of the scent, following night I managed to sleep in there but still woke with a headache. This will be a small price to pay if it does the trick though, using this, cedar rings and moth traps hopefully will work but only time will tell, although on first inspection it's done for a couple of wood lice from the fire place in my sitting room! So fingers crossed !UPDATE : Had no moths until this week 5th Dec) when my cat spotted 1 poncing across my wooden floor in the hall, quickly disposed of and another spray of rooms been done, I think this is doing the trick as no moths in traps or seemingly kicking about, will spray again in the new year and am hoping the problem is resolved.

We had a bedroom infested with carpet moths that were munching away at the edges of the carpet. Moth traps kept them in check for a bit, but they kept coming back, and it went on like this for maybe a year. We nearly hired a professional pest control service but that would have cost us at least £200 or so. Instead we decided to give this a try first. I was worried it would be difficult to use, smelly, or ineffective, but the results were excellent. Treating the room took maybe an hour including clearing out some small furniture and the clothes from the closet (the carpet in the closet was infested too, but the clothes were mostly synthetic fibres and didn't need spraying). The actual spraying took about 10 minutes (all of carpet, but most thoroughly on the edges). It does smell a lot when freshly sprayed and feels a bit irritating, so I made sure not to breathe too much and kept the window wide open. After that I closed the door to that room and left the window open for an hour or so before vacuuming. The smell was much better by then, but I left the window open another 4-5 hrs at least. Recommend doing this on a mild day rather than the middle of winter. No one slept in the room that night, although you probably could have used it normally, as there was nearly no smell after the extended ventilation. I repeated the same treatment about a month later to kill another (smaller) batch of moths. This was last August and we have not seen a single moth since, so this is truly an effective, long term solution. But there is still plenty of spray left in the bottle if the beasts ever dare to return...

Well this certainly kills moths. I sprayed two with it whilst I was treating a room and they died instantly. On that basis, 5*. However, I am seriously concerned that I will not be able to use the room which has been sprayed with this. The disgusting "lavender" smell is overpowering, making the room smell like cheap toilet cleaner. I have had a window open all day to no avail. It seems to be aggravating my asthma too. Also have headache. Manufacturer really should consider making this product unscented. Fragrance smell is vile.

I get pestered with the few moths especially in my bedroom. I was hesitant about using a repellent in the place I sleep. This product is amazing. One spray around and the pesky blighters are gone. Other products have just seen them dart under the bed and reappear later. Not this product. Plus no unpleasant smell great product very effective.

I have bought this 5 times. It doesn't just work on moths it also kills flies.I was disappointed with the latest bottle though. The spray was more like a stream no matter how the nozzle was turned. This meant that instead of spraying a fine mist over the clothes too much liquid comes out. It's too expensive to be so wasteful.

Acana Carpet and Fabric Moth Killer with a lavender fresh smell. Spray bottle comes in a 500 ml trigger bottle. Easy to follow instructions. Ive used on 100% wool carpet. So far so good, no carpet eaten yet.
