How To Use A Pantry Moth Trap


Moths can be quite a nuisance in any pantry however using a pantry moth trap can eliminate this problem quite quickly.

 

Most pantry moth traps are in the form of triangles when they are fully assembled. The first step to using your pantry moth trap is to unfold the trap itself and insert one end into the notch at the other end creating a triangle.

After this is done, moths will be naturally attracted to a substance called pheromone (harmless to humans) which is present on the trap. When the moths fly into the trap to try and find this substance, they will stick to the 3 sides of the trap and will be unable to escape.

Simply leave the pantry moth trap where there is the largest concentration of moths in your pantry and wait for it to fill with these pests. Once almost all of the sticky space has been filled on the trap, simply re-fold it and throw it out. If the problem persists simply install another trap until there are no moths left.
