One of my snake tanks recently got infested with little clothing moths. I don't know where they came from, they just appeared one day!! They're always dying in the water and I've tried cleaning the tank and they don't go away! They don't seem to bother my snake, but I'm just curious where they came from, why they are there, and if they can/will harm my snake (In which case I need to know how to get rid of them ASAP). Any feedback will help! Thanks!

I am not sure what to tell you. I have not ever had that happen or know anyone that has. I would probably completely dump out the tank bedding and wash everything really good and let it completely dry before putting the tank back together.
I doubt that they are bothering the snake but unfortunately I can not say for sure.

Perhaps you can try freezing your bedding.
