Adult moths do not eat books and get their nutrition from liquids. However, some species of moth larvae can eat and digest paper and may eat through pages of your books.

Moths do not eat books. They are attracted to the glue and paper in books because they contain nutrients that the insects can feed on. However, moths are more likely to infest books when they are already in a state of disrepair or when they are not properly stored.
