8 Pack Pantry Moth Traps- Safe and Effective for Food and Cupboard- Glue Traps with Pheromones for Pantry Moths

3rd edit (August 7): I rarely touch these traps…but I think the pheromone is somehow on me now. The past three times I went to Kroger, I was followed by two or three pantry moths that must have hatched in the store. This is an unexpected turn of events. I so rarely see them in my home, but I can’t escape them in a giant grocery store. That’s a pretty good indication of how strong the pheromones are in these traps.2nd edit: It’s been just over two months (July 3rd today) since we started using these traps. I just received my 3rd 8 pack and I’m interested to see how long it takes to fill them up or if I even get that many. There are very few flying around anymore and I assume they are females. We swat them when we see them. The 16 traps I used prior to today were all filled with moths by the time I disposed of them. Despite not seeing much activity, I want to give it at least one more round of fresh traps before I call the problem fixed. Though I imagine I will still keep some out to prevent reinfestation (new ones tend to show up in my dry goods). I think these are a solid investment if you have a pantry moth problem. The male moths are drawn to them like a candle flame.Just a suggestion to those dealing with this problem, also invest in sealed storage containers. Amazon has some great sets with a good rubber seal. I put all my cereals, rices, flours, sugar, etc. in them and it’s helping prevent further infestations. I’ve also been freezing new dried goods as they come into my home. I have sushi rice and corn meal in the freezer as I write this. I leave them in there for a week before putting them in the sealed containers to kill any offending critters (I did not freeze my previous bag of sushi rice and it was infested with pantry moths inside the sealed container. They couldn’t get out and while I was able to kill them all, I didn’t want to use the rice after that). I also have a big bag of Turkish bay leaves that I spread on shelves and in drawers that hold food/spices. I read somewhere that they don’t like bay leaves and it appears to be true.These moths (and even weevils) also like to get into boxes of Mac and cheese, pasta, boxed stuffing, rice-a-roni, etc. Freeze them all and seal them up.Edit to add: two days later and the traps are full of moths. So the sticky part works!We have been dealing with pantry moths off and on for years. We will get it under control and then one day they come back. It’s always been confined to our kitchen…until this year. They moved into the living room and have taken over, driving us crazy. I feel like I’m killing 5 a day.I just got these traps a few hours ago and only opened them within the last 30 minutes. I can’t attest to how well they actually trap the moths, but the pheromones work! I was most skeptical about that part.I had just removed one of the papers off the sticky part and was swarmed by pantry moths. They are usually hiding in my curtains and we generally only see two or three aloft at any given time. I was surrounded at one point with close to ten hovering around me. One walked into a trap and got stuck, but two others were able to escape the sticky trap. So I’m not sure how well the sticky parts are going to work. But it brings them out of hiding. My husband and I were able to kill most of them just by luring them out of hiding. That alone makes these traps worth it.My second line of defense are some plug in traps that I’m waiting for. Hoping between the two products, we can get rid of this problem once and for all.
