Clothing Moth Traps - 8 Pack - Non Toxic Moth Traps for Clothes with Pheromone Attractant - Odorless Sticky Trap for Closet, Carpets

They catch some of our common, webbing clothes moths (Tineola bisselliella). There surely are much better traps available from other brands (industry grade used in hotels) which cost around $100 for ca 3 months treatment. These here are much cheaper and cannot be expected to draw moths out of cracks - but they will catch some over time if a population is present. The 16 pack come wrapped in 8 packs of 2. The 8 pack are individually wrapped. Try a few different places (floor, hanger, outside closet) to gauge "hot spots". Beautifully golden, unicolor webbing moths love to eat away at furs, wool and silk fabrics, all your natural clothing, carpets, and they adore dark spaces with little to no disturbance. They will find hair, cotton, paper or any fuzz enough to live on once established. They do not live in pantries or eat food supplies. These traps work in that a few males get stuck, along with other occasional insects like ants, spiders who end up on the paper and die exhausted after dragging halfway over. Please show kindness and check your traps to shorten desperate battles that last days. These traps are sticky enough to trap mice, so don't get your fingers in there. These traps will NOT rid us of the moth problem, but they show us that it persists months after our first clean-through. De-moth strategies (it's a drag or a toss, sometimes both) without poisoning the home: - Toss any garment with several holes unless you want to have them chemically cleaned. - We tried freezing most of our wool clothes outside in deep winter, way below freezing. - We will try next to heat our entire closet in the car when it's hot enough outdoors. At full sun, checking the thermometer shows no less than 55°C or 130°F for an hour. - Wash everything that can be washed on hot (60°C > 30min). - On a regular basis, vacuum (corners, cracks) and wipe surfaces with water and a little vinegar. - We think some safe spaces will always remain (e.g. ducts). Disturbing the population often should help keep in control, though. - Essential oils, as in cedar wood, are said help in preventing a moth problem. We have always kept cedar balls (oil or sand every 6 months) and satchels of lavender blossom (2 years if fresh) in our laundry, especially with delicates. Large amounts of oils irritate us and our pet and will not deter an existing infestation. - Never put unwashed clothes in the closet (sweat spots are said to attract moths - try Atsko sports wash to remove smells gently and healthily). We expect to keep using these traps for years to come, exchanging them every 2-3 months (just our guess at how long they last)... and go through it all over and again as soon as the population recovers. Hopefully no more than twice a year. When there's a rise in numbers, we also use live Trichogramma wasps. They lay eggs in the moth eggs, so their larvae never develop into their clothes-eating stage. Keep unleashing the wasps every two weeks until the glue traps show the webbing moth population has diminished.

These work, I have them on subscribe and save. I believe I get them every 6 months. They work in my house, (I don't know where the moths are coming from) but they are attracted to these traps. I rarely find clothes or fabric eaten by Moths, but I do find a lot of them in these traps. A four to six month old trap may have as many as 20 or 30 moths. I buy new ones and put them out but find it hard to throw out the old ones that are still working. I will continue to buy them as long as they continue to work. I highly recommend them. I've been using them two or three years. I hang them near lights, in closets, and in my dining room near my wool rug.

These have done a great job at catching the moths. However, from what I understand, it only catches males that are flying about trying to mate. You need to figure out the source, and figure out where the larvae is and attack that, otherwise they will keep coming. This has been a total nightmare dealing with these stupid creatures.

Traps moths with the scent they put in them. Works fantastic

Wow these really do work. I was shocked after just one day it caught many of them. No fuss, no smell, easy to dispose of. Just buy them!!

Worked immediately! I put these up before I went to bed, the next morning it had five moths in it. Easy to use, easy to assemble. Set it and forget it.

These worked for me in closets. The traps have caught dozens of moths. However, I wonder if they are enough to stop the cycle completely. I've had the traps for a few months and they just keep trapping moths, which seem to still be reproducing. So while they work in a way, catching moths, do they work to totally eradicate moths? I'll keep using them because they're better than nothing. And much better than smelly mothballs. Hopefully after 6 months or so I'll finally be completely rid of moths. I've also begun taking my wool and silk garments and putting them in ziploc bags to freeze for a week, then take them out and keep them sealed. I'll keep doing this with my garments to ensure that the source of the problems are also treated. Fingers crossed.

These moths are virtually impossible to eradicate so be diligent. The hanging piece is flimsy. Overall though, this is the best method I have found to fight these little creatures

I purchased one 16 pack of these moth traps, thinking I didn't really need them as much as I needed some traps for moths I noticed in the pantry. (So I bought two 20 packs of those.) Well... have a look! Was I wrong or what?!! I put a few of these traps here and there in my closets and dark places around my bedrooms and dressing room just as a precaution. Thought I wouldn't catch much bcuz I only ever saw one or two moths in my clothes areas. You can see for yourself tho', the number of moths I caught over the fall and wintertime! And these are mostly males too, as they're the ones attracted to the pheromones in the traps! Meaning... most of the females are still out there! Yuck! Even though I am careful, and keep my silks, woolens, shearling items, and furs in cotton storage bags when I'm not wearing them, all these fine fabrics in my closets were in danger anyway, and I never knew it. You think you have no moths until the change of seasons comes. You begin to think about your change of wardrobe and switching out your closets, you pull out these moth traps... and... holy smokes!!! Moths. Ugh!! Lots of them!! Double ugh!! Highly recommend these traps. Very impressed with this product, and very glad I decided to purchase in the first place, even tho' I really didn't think I needed them. Well, I needed them alright. I have none of these traps left now, and will definitely order more. They work, obviously! Two thumbs up.

very surprised and impressed with how well these work. I had a clothing moth problem / infestation. I placed about 4 x of these around the area I thought they were coming from (1x in wardrobe and 3 x near bedside lamps). Each trap caught around 4+ small moths over several days (plus a spider). Combined with me spraying and killing moths when I saw them, this completely fixed my problem. Putting on a bedside lamp at night worked well in attracting the moths to one place

Four traps were distributed in a room with moths (around 2 per day), never once did any moth end up in a trap. Clearly a broken product was delivered to me.

Hace tres semanas que coloqué las Moth traps en roperos y clósets. No ha caído ninguna y siguen revoloteando como si nada en las habitaciones de mi casa.

I cannot be without these. My wardrobe is moth contaminated - it is a constant battle. These traps collect a huge amount of flying pests and it is very satisfying. I recommend highly.
