Moths
 

Has anyone else got Moths flying round in the food cupboard, they are driving me nuts, I remember my neighbour saying to me the one time that we met, about the Moths in the summer, but they weren't there in the Summer they are worse now, is there any way to get rid of the little Darlings Thanks Frances:ohmy: :frown:

Re: Moths
 

You've got pantry moths, they're very common.

They start off as weevil things in bags of flour or packets of biscuits or sauce mix packets (ie. floury things) and then hatch out into those little moths.

Best thing to do is to go through your cupboards until you find where they're breeding - then chuck whatever it is away and clean your cupboards out. They can burrow through plastic packaging so check sealed packets too.

Alternatively you can buy pantry moth traps that are these sticky baits that they're attracted to.

When you're rid of them, make sure all your dry goods are kept in sealed containers (like tupperware) from now on and you shouldn't have any more problems. :)
