Garrha moderatella is a moth in the Oecophoridae family. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Victoria and Tasmania.

The wingspan is about 30 mm. The forewings are pale flesh-colour with a dull reddish dot in the disc at one-third, a second on the fold somewhat beyond the first. Both are very inconspicuous. There is a third more distinct dot in the disc beyond the middle and faint indications of a posterior series. The hindwings are pale ochreous-grey.
