MAXGUARD Pantry Moth Traps (12 Pack +2 Free) with Extra Strength Pheromones | Non-Toxic Sticky Glue Trap for Food and Cupboard Moths in Your Kitchen | Trap and Kill Seed Grain Flour Meal Moths |

There was a huge moth infestation at my parents' house--it was bad to the point where maybe a couple would seep into an unsealed (but seemingly closed) bag of ground flaxseed or an open canister of spices in the kitchen somehow and make a whole home with all sorts of webbing within. One of the main areas of infestation was in one particular room in the basement that had a good dozen or more of them flying around like they owned the room. So my mom got advice from someone and thought moth balls were a good solution along with closing off and really sealing that room with the infestation. I said it was a bad idea, but she said she knew what she was doing, so I said, ooooooook..... long story short: 2 or 3 days later I ran into the room to grab some canned drinks and there were larvae and brown casings everywhere... they truly owned the room now LOL. So with a bit of research and searching online, I found these traps and saw they had good reviews. Yes, they very much work! Within a few days, most of the (presumably) male moths were flying into them, leaving the female moths out to dry (lol). Obviously if eggs can't be laid, then over some period of time the moth population should be eradicated, especially given the females only have a lifespan of 1-3 weeks or so. I would say after just those few days, I only saw 2 or 3 occasionally flying around. They could've just been females. The manufacturer recommends replacing the traps either if they are full or if 90 days have passed. A couple of them seem heavily populated, but not quite full by my definition so I decided to leave them to see what would happen over time (see my uploaded photos). Now a full month has passed, and I think they are probably 98-99% gone. Still see one flying from time to time, but it seems like they should disappear for good before the winter. Some additional notes based on my observations over the last 30 days: 1) It is possible the pantry moths in larva form like eating clothes, but, from research, they only do so as a last resort. I had a feeling clothes moths were also players at the table in this game, so I ordered the the clothes moth variants of the traps as well. Didn't catch much in the first few days, but after that, the traps started populating, especially with tiny ones that just grew out of their casings. 2) As a precaution, I moved all my clothes into my car to bake in the heat and kill off any potential eggs or larvae. They say clothes being in 135F heat for at least 30 min should be sufficient (or being in a dryer on high setting or dry cleaning). 3) Do not be afraid to swat any still flying around. If you see two stuck together in the mating process like I still did maybe once a week or so, you MUST especially swat them as if you were saving the world from being taken over by a bunch of aliens like in one of those movies because female pantry moths, after mating, are capable of laying hundreds of eggs (on average like 500-800). If they are successful, the cycle starts all over again. Granted if it happens, with the traps, it would just take a little longer and probably more traps to eradicate them from your space. Conclusion: traps are worth the price and will save you so much time, energy, and headaches from trying other solutions and needing to repeatedly take other actions like throwing out or replacing food items or clothes, etc. Have a pantry moth problem? Don't think about it, just buy now.

These are very effective over 1 yr that I have experience, however, the adhesion will never be compromised. one trap caught 14 mini-moths over 9 months, another 12 over 1 year. I don't understand why they are so effective. I never saw any moths at any time, yet these traps nail all many, so I placed traps in every cabinet and a top cabinets. will f/u in 7 months.

FAST DELIVERY. works amazing at catching and killing pantry moths

Was hoping they would work quicker, like in every video we looked up. It took several days, but we did catch moths. It does seem that our infestation is gone. We no longer see moths every night as we watch tv.

A package of powder supplement came loaded with those nasty worms and pantry flies. Didn't realize until fully infested. Had never heard of a pantry fly. And what a nightmare they are to get rid of. Throughout all pantry goods and anything new went into refrigerator. Thoroughly cleaned cabinets with bleach and water. Placed these traps in the cabinets keeping doors closed. At first a few pantry moths appeared, within first week no more to be seen. However continued to keep cabinet empty changed the traps a few times as could see moths attracted and dying on them. You really need to get to the source so you must have patience to do this. I waited over a month before putting anything back in the pantry and making sure no more moths showed up on traps. It was horrible having those disgusting moths and the worms that go with them like a horrific nightmare. Didn't think I'd ever get rid of them but thanks to these traps I have. Highly recommend

THESE ARE GREAT JUST GOT MINE. SET THEM UP AND CAUGHT SEVERAL ALREADY. ONCE THEY GET IN IT IS OVER. I LOVE IT. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS TO GET RID OF MOTHS. I WILL PURCHASE AGAIN AND KEEP THEM ON HAND. GREAT PRODUCT.

They are very effective at catching the male pantry months. These alone will not eradicate an infestation, but they will definitely help.
