silk,linen,wool, or cottonI have no freakin cluei think it's silk, but moths make that, so im really not sureThis is homework, and im stuckThank you so much!
Little kids answer these questions why are you asking that stuff on the web!!! Take this question to the doctors and ask them yourself!:(
Woolen jumpers is a favorite to moths and many very expensive pieces have been attacked in history! So I am going to say wool :) edit : I did some research for you and found this : Adults are unable to feed and it is the larvae stage, which are small cream-colored caterpillars with brown head capsules, that damage fabricsIn houses, they are most frequently pests of clothing, carpets, rugs, upholstery fabrics, piano felts, brush bristles, blankets, hair from pets, furs, lint from woolens, and any stored woolThese products all contain the animal derived protein keratinClothes moth larvae will, at times, damage other products such as cotton, linen, silk, synthetic fibers and paperSuch damage, however, is usually incidental, resulting from the larva damaging such fibers while eating its natural foodClothes moth larvae are particularly damaging to fabrics stained with materials such as oil from human hair, human sweat, urine, beer, tomato juice, milk, and soft drinksThese caterpillars require a certain balance of nutrients in their diet to develop properly, and they especially need vitamin BFirst instar larvae cannot survive on clean wool, but require the nutritional supplements found in soilage (body oils from the wearer of a garment)Hope this helps you :)
