It looks like a webbing clothes moth Tinoeola bisselliella.  Diagnostic is the 
color of the wings and the redish blond head with a little topknot – at least 
from what I can see.

Subject: * [PestList] Moth ID help please

Hi everyone,

I need help IDing the moth in the picture attached. I apologize that the photo 
is a bit blurry. I originally thought they were clothes moths but could they be 
a type of grain moth? They started appearing a few weeks ago and I have checked 
our textile objects. There was some pest damage evident on a wool rug. However, 
corn and grain are stored in the kitchens downstairs from our collections. I 
know there have been mice issues in the kitchens too. I would appreciate any 
insight. Thanks for your help!

Thanks,
Annie
