Greetings once again, America the Beautiful! The Manchester Mothmen are back by popular demand, and this time, we're here to stay. So, what sets us apart? Well, who else is crafting moth traps in that unforgettable shade of lapis lazuli blue? And which other brand delivers the daily dose of alliteration you crave?
Jokes aside, we're the UK's number one moth trap for a good reason. For one, we don't skimp on the pheromones, nor do we cut costs on the high-quality glue lining the interior of our traps. This gives our traps a more powerful radius of attraction while preventing any possibility of escape. Each captured moth will significantly reduce the overall problem!
Our traps are also odorless and contain just three vital ingredients: paper, glue, and sweet, sweet pheromones. Moreover, by eliminating the need for separate pantry moth and clothes moth traps, we're doing our part for the environment.
We understand what customers need and strive to deliver value wherever possible. Given that nowadays, few people read Amazon descriptions thoroughly, you're a diligent buyer! You've likely already faced an infestation or are deeply concerned about moth prevention, and you're trying to learn as much as you can. Well, you've come to the right place!
First, you need to know that clothes and pantry moths are deadbeat parents. Their life cycle consists of mating, abandoning their offspring in your clothes or food, and then promptly dying. It's not the moths themselves that consume your belongings, but their larvae. These eggs will be laid in clusters ranging from 30 to 200, and once they hatch, the devouring begins.
Our traps catch a variety of moth species, including the Common Clothes Moth, Pale-backed Clothes Moth, Case-bearing Clothes Moth, and the Indian Meal Moth (also known as the pantry moth). If you're unsure about the specific moth species in your home, feel free to send us a photo, and we'll be happy to take a look.
The beauty of our dual-pheromone approach is that you don't need to worry about distinguishing between pantry moths and clothes moths – our traps will catch both! But even better, you can start tackling an infestation right away, even before our traps arrive. Pheromone traps target male moths, breaking the breeding cycle, but they can't do anything about the eggs that have already been laid. That's where you come in.
For clothes moths, clear out all affected clothing and wash them at a minimum of 120 Fahrenheit. For items that can't withstand this temperature, consider dry cleaning. These methods will kill any existing eggs. While your clothes are in the wash, create a 1:1 solution of white vinegar and water, and use it to clean the surfaces of your closets. The acidity will destroy any eggs or larvae in the vicinity, effectively acting as both a clothes moth killer and a pantry moth killer.
For pantry moths, inspect all containers of dried food in your home, as at least one is likely to have larvae present. Discard the infested food far from your home, and then use the vinegar-water solution to clean the surrounding surfaces. We also recommend investing in airtight storage containers for the future.
Once your traps arrive, hang them near any sources of food or clothing. That will take care of the adult male moths, so you can start to relax. Since moths have such short life spans, you won't have to worry long about the female moths – they'll die within a week or two, unfulfilled.
As for alternatives, we'd advise you to avoid moth balls, as they contain toxic substances. Cedarwood and lavender can work well as moth repellents for closets, but the potency is difficult to measure, making pheromone traps a more reliable solution.
In summary, our traps offer DOUBLE THE VALUE by targeting both pantry and clothes moths, a LARGER SURFACE AREA for maximum capture, an EXPERT GUIDE included in the box, and NO INSECTICIDES – just the power of pheromones and glue. Plus, you're entitled to as much expert advice as you need, so don't hesitate to reach out!
