BugMD Clothes & Pantry Moth Traps with Sticky Glue

Works well. Captured a ton of moths that had damaged my clothing. Can't say it got all of them but the moths stuck on the surface of the traps were alarming.

I buy these about twice a year. They are not cheap, but they are the most effective and subtle thing that work for me! I put these all across the apartment. I love to thrift and feel like I'm always fighting moths. These help me feel confident and less anxious about them. When you check the traps and see them lined with moths, it gives the same satisfaction of when you used a blackhead pore strip! Lol I definitely recommend giving them a try if you're considering it!

I don't normally write reviews, but I've just been amazed opening these. 3 moths started flying around me while opening the foil packages and assembling. I decided just to leave one on the counter instead of putting it in the pantry, where we had been having the problem (despite cleaning it out multiple times). Within minutes they had gone inside the trap and become stuck. Obviously those pheromones are working! I wish I'd have ordered them sooner. I've been battling them for a few weeks.

Works with flying and crawling pests. A recent event demonstrated that the scent and sticky glue can "catch" a (large pesky) fly that flew into our kitchen when the sliding glass door was opened for a few minutes. I opened up the trap (flat) and laid it on the counter . Fly trapped.

This product is good and it does work! However, I took one star off, because the seller needs to educate people on what the life of the moth is, and why these may appear not to be working. If you have a minute or two, I can save you tons of research and give you hope that you might eventually clear up the problem. But if you think it's a couple day solution, you're in for a big disappointment. Here's the reason these appear not to be working...when you see no flying moths, it may mean the moths have died off at the moment, so of course this trap is not going to catch them. But before the moth was flying around, it was a larvae and before that it was an egg. So the moth lays about 50 eggs. They are tiny and often look more like dandruff on a dark surface. The eggs are not eating your clothes, but if they are left to become larvae, those are the ones that eat the fabrics and damage everything. Once they become a moth, they have no mouth to eat and do not eat anything...they don't live very long. The only threat the moth is, is if they haven't yet laid the eggs to start the next cycle. So if the closet has no moths and you remove the traps too soon, of course you'll think they don't work. A full moth cycle is 16 to 28 days. So several cycles could be in process in your closet from different moths and will mature at different times. See why they're so hard to get rid of? It's essential you clean everything out of the closet! Clothes need washed and even that doesn't guarantee you get all the eggs. They can survive even hot water for a short time, but most likely won't. Once stuff is washed or dry cleaned, store them in plastic tubs or heavy plastic bags. The floors of the closet must be cleaned very thoroughly as a tiny little crack can hold tons of eggs and they like dark crevices! I used bleach too! Make sure shelves are cleaned thoroughly. If possible, keep stuff out of the closet...I know that's not always possible. If you have carpeting, be careful what you set on the carpeting, as you can transfer eggs to carpet and they will eat the carpet fibers too! If possible, shampoo suspected areas of infection. Don't use soap. For fifty years, I've used nothing but hot water and clear ammonia to clean carpets and it's way better than soapy detergents, but here's a disclaimer...to be safe, test a hidden area of the rug before shampooing. I've never had it damage any carpet by using it, but just to be safe... Use about a half cup in the hot water. The larvae stage is fairly easy to spot. If for example, you open a light colored blanket and see spots like black pepper specks or even larger and there's a smeared look, those are the start of them eating away! Larvae are white little shiny things with a black head. And to be honest, you may very well lose some items. I had to throw out tons of blankets, coats, even boots! They will eat a lot of things besides wool or natural fabrics too. I have all Vellux blankets...which are made with nylon on the outside and a foam layer inside. They devoured tons of the nylon! So settle in for the long haul. It doesn't matter how clean you are, and I'm the queen of clean, anyone can get pantry or closet moths. Now for one more helpful tip: I hesitate to give my secret, because I don't want the price to go up, but get a can of *** any brand Kitchen Botanical spray. (may be only one manufacturer). It's made to kill fruit flies and insects and be safe to spray around food. No harmful chemicals! That doesn't mean it smells pleasant, but it's not too bad really. But it will stop anything flying in its tracks! If it flies, all they have to do is fly through the mist and in a minute they are dead. So it will kill the flying things. I spray the closet with it too, in the hopes it's toxic for the larvae too. One more thing...there's a lot of talk about cedar wood helping to protect from moths, also lavender, herbals scents and essential oils. Testing in labs found these to be ineffective, for various reasons I won't go into. Also, moth balls are toxic in many ways, and are designed to be used in a totally air tight space. Most don't use them that way and therefore they are more harmful than effective or helpful. Just quoting research here. Plus, you'll never get the smell of mothballs out of anything! Hope this helps others to understand what to do, and I'm wanting to give everyone suffering with these, hope. It's so not fun! So good luck and may we all be moth free!

Great in closets, pest control that is not offensive

It is effective, problem is that i struggle to keep the sides separated and once it sticks no way to separate

These really do work. In each of the traps, I have 2 to 3 moths. And they keep collecting! I am assuming that as the moths hatch they will catch more and more of them. The only reason I did not give this five stars is that my security camera still captures the moths flying around. So it doesn’t catch every one of them. But it’s catching them. And I have all of the individual traps unpacked and out throughout the house.
