Moth Allergy

Moth allergy is an allergic reaction to proteins found in moths and their larvae. When someone with this allergy comes into contact with these proteins, either through inhalation or skin contact, their immune system overreacts, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, or skin rashes. This allergy can be triggered by dust or debris from moths in homes, especially in stored fabrics. Managing moth allergy often involves avoiding areas where moths are present, using air purifiers, and keeping living spaces clean to minimize exposure to allergens.
