Product Information

So what about moths in your home that aren't attracted to light? Well, if a moth isn't attracted to bright light sources, it’s actually a decent indicator that the moth is a pest species. There are indeed a few harmless types of moths that will flutter into houses looking for warm, dry places to hide. Sometimes, these moths aren’t attracted to lights but also aren’t harmful. With that being said, the fact stands that most pest moths like Clothes Moths and Pantry Moths enter homes for far more nefarious reasons. Pestilent moths like these can cause infestations and their larvae eat through items of clothing and textiles made from animal based fibres, and dry food goods.

Yes, Pantry Moths will infest bedrooms if there are food sources for them to eat. Usually, Pantry Moth infestations begin in kitchen cupboards or pantries and then spread to the rest of the home.

The most common species found across the US, including in Hawaii and Alaska, are Indian Meal Moths (Plodia Interpunctella) and Mediterranean Food Moths (Ephestia kuehniella).

If the pantry moths have not come into the house through food already infested with pantry moth eggs or pantry moth larvae, you will want to be looking for other entry points and external sources.After throwing out any infested foodstuff, seal the trashbag tight, and discard it outside. Thoroughly clean your kitchen trash receptacle(s), as well. Moths love cloth, or so the saying goes, so if you find moths in your closet, then you may have to soak your clothes in vinegar to make sure they are free of larvae. You can either use white vinegar in laundry and wash your clothes as normal, or for bad infestations, soak the garments directly in vinegar for a few hours. The food sources are typically flour (hence the common reference to ‘flour moth’), cereals, rice, pasta, nuts, seeds, dried pet food, bird seed and similar dried foodstuffs. As the larvae eat through your belongings, they grow bigger. Often, moth larvae will leave evidence behind. Evidence of moth larvae may include casings, dead larvae, live larvae, webbing material, cocoons, and detritus. After a certain amount of time (anywhere from a few weeks to many months), the moth larvae will spin cocoons. Then, they will emerge from the cocoons as adult moths.

With our guidance, you will deal with your moth infestation, protect your dry food stuffs, and take away the stress of dealing with these pests.

If you plan on using the bottle more than once, make sure it is a glass bottle so that the oil doesn’t disintegrate the plastic and label it for future use. Some types of moths fly into the house looking for light sources. These moths are usually harmless and can be lured out of the house by turning off all of the lights except for one bright light source outdoors.
