Moth(?) ID

Hi! I looked through the butterfly vs moth link and believe I have found a moth, as the antennae look slightly barbed and I don't notice clubs (though my eyesight isn't super good). However, it does look like it has a proboscis, so I'm not super sure. Please let me know if I should post to the butterfly Reddit page instead :)

I found this moth(?) passed away on the floor of my hallway closet today. I'm located in central Oregon in the USA. I'm wondering if this is a type of moth that eats clothes/fibers and/or if I should be concerned? I haven't had a chance to inspect my clothes yet and I honestly don't know what I'm looking for.

TL;DR: found a moth in my closet in Oregon, should I be worried for my clothes?

Thanks in advance for any help/advice! :)
