Pantry Moth Traps
What is it? 
Pantry moths are small-winged pests commonly found indoors, in locations where food or ingredients are sorted, such as kitchens, storefronts, food processing plants or pantries. One of the most annoying pests to deal with, pantry moths are known to cause terrible damage to food, spoiling it as it becomes invaded by larvae.
Maybe you’ve gone into the pantry to grab some flour, only to notice strange webbing on the surface of the flour or even some wriggling. While it may be annoying to lose the occasional packet of flour, you could face an extended battle if you don’t get on the problem early.
Thankfully, a combination of prevention strategies and pest control products such as pantry moth traps can ensure your pest problem is easily solved. With that said, there is nothing worse than thinking you’ve gotten rid of a pantry moth problem, only for them to come right back and ruin more food.

Moth Traps Frequently Asked Questions
Do Pantry Moth Traps Work?
Yes, our moth traps work if placed in the right locations where moths consistently lay their eggs. By limiting moths from laying their eggs, these traps effectively interrupt the life cycle of the moths, reducing their presence. When used over an extended period of time, you will eventually remove all trace of pantry moths from the area.
Hovex non-toxic traps are pesticide-free and work to attract male moths using a pheromone lure. Once drawn, the moth becomes stuck against the sticky walls inside of the box.
If you spot an infestation, conduct a close examination of all food items, corners, and crevices to identify the source. Spray this area with insect killer or lay a trap to rid the area of pantry moths.
Do Pantry Moth Traps Work for Clothes Moths?
A pantry moth trap uses a different type of pheromone than clothes moth traps to attract moths. This means that if you have clothes moths, pantry moth traps will not work. Likewise, if you have pantry moths, clothes moths’ traps will not work.
If you’re looking to solve a clothes moth problem, try using Hovex Clothing Moth Traps to prevent the issue from worsening. Our clothing moth traps are long-lasting, capturing moths and solving the problem instead of just deterring moths. As clothes moths seek dark, dusty, undisturbed spaces such as closets to breed, we recommend placing the traps in and around your wardrobe.
Make sure to be vigilant all year round for clothes moths, especially in warmer parts of the year. Only put clean clothing back into your closet, and air your freshly washed clothes before placing them in your wardrobe. As moisture is critical for clothes moths breeding cycle, it is recommended to avoid placing damp clothes into your closet.
