moths or similar pest?

[tingirl]

Eek! I just saw a legged insect crawl out of one of my woollens - but it wasn't a moth (they're winged) and i suspect it was having a much on my sweater. Does anyone have an idea what this insect might be and any remedies? thanks! Tin.

It may actually be a moth, the females of many species are wingless.

You can buy anti moth sprays or line your drawers with lavender or mint.

There's also something called a wooly bear which is the larvae of a beetle. They love wool, so I'd check all your woolies and then get some kind of pest control spray.
