Holes in my clothes?
Question:I have been finding tiny holes in all of my t shirts and I have no idea what the hell its from. Even shirts that I've had for a week end up with holes. I hear Moths only eat wool.. and most of the items with the holes are cotton or mostly cotton, so what the heck else could it be? I do see little moths flying around my house every once in a while.. but It's nothing extreme. Help!
Answers:
If you have cotton eating moths, put some cedar blocks in the drawers or closet where you store them. But, I found that the t-shirts my hubby bought this last time are much thinner than the ones he had before. He wears them to do yardwork and thus I wash them in bleach which was making tiny holes in the shirts. Maybe that is what is happening to yours.
Put moth balls in you tee shirt drawer.
Are you using too much bleach?
It could be ants. They eat cotton and I've found holes in clothes that have had ants on them.

Might be getting caught on stuff in the washer/dryer, check for any misplace metal that is snagging. Or on other clothes for example, zippers on jeans...
sometimes bleach can do this. Moths and other insects as well, other thatn that the clothes may just be worn out.
