8 Pack Pantry Moth Traps- Safe and Effective for Food and Cupboard- Glue Traps with Pheromones and Anti bacterial 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.

Just wanted to say these are absolutely great at catching moths. I had a small infestation that was starting to get a little out of control and in a few weeks this and some cleaning started to clear them up. Those pesky moths managed to find a new breeding ground though in a place in my pantry where I hadn’t looked for in a long time since I don’t ever need anything from there. After a few days of dozens of these nasty things being caught by this product I decided to come back here to the comment section. Reading the comments made me realize just how much will these things have to stay alive. I was getting worried they were breeding in my clothes. Thus I finally found where their refuge was and I threw everything away and cleaned with clorox. Will clean the rest as it’s 1am and I’m exhausted.

These are incredibly effective at catching the little food moths. Those moths can get everywhere if you don’t take care of them ALL. These things attract even larger bugs (roaches) and are strong enough to stick/trap/hold them. Great to leave in the back of a cabinet- or pantry- to be sure pests don't proliferate. And if you get some pests- put one of these anywhere you see them and it will do the rest. Easy to put in use. Need to be replaced usually every few weeks (they are effective and can get a little gross if you don’t).

Update - 10.10.23: I have updated my review (and title) and improved the score because it has begun to trap moths. I was surprised to see four dead moths trapped this morning when I was looking in the pantry. I'm assuming it must take some time for the moths to find it. We've had the traps out for about a week and a half now and we're starting to see results. I think exercising patience will be necessary to get the most out of this product. Happy to update my review with positive news; I'm still docking 1 star because I think the setup instructions could be reversed with better success, but otherwise the trap works as described. Purchased these based on many positive reviews. Had an outbreak of pantry moths and larvae in a closet as a result of contaminated bird seed. Be aware that opening the package and following the directions led to one folding over on itself, self-attaching to the adhesive. The adhesive is quite strong (in terms of sticking to itself, but not moths in my experience) so this first trap had to be discarded. We reversed the steps - folded the trap, *then* removed the protective seal on the adhesive - with better results. We have yet to catch any moths with the trap after a week or so. I actually had a moth flying in the air that I coaxed into the trap just to see if it would stick, but it landed on the adhesive and escaped with no problem. Other people may have better luck with these based on reviews, but I found these to be useless. It neither seems to attract the moths nor catches them in the sticky adhesive. 2 out of 5 stars for me.

These are great!! I had a pretty bad infestation, now they're gone after using the traps and cleaning all the wheat products and their packaging out of the pantry. The only problem is that they teap other animals as well. One of them snared two geckos and another captured one. The first 2 perished, unfortunately, but, after realuaing it could even happen, I would check the traps regularly and so managed to rescue a 3rd gecko. These things are extemely sticky and it took careful effort (using some water and a piece of thin plastic) to remove the poor gecko. After I put him back in the pantry (they eat roaches, moths and flies), he lay there for a while, but now he's climbed the wall and left... so he'll be okay. But these teaps are sticky and moths love them!! Buy them!

very bad and doesn't work at all. Never buy this product, it is just a paper. Waste of money
