SaferBrand 05140 Pantry Moth Pest Trap and Killer for Grain, Flour, Meal and Seed Moths - 2 Traps

Attracts and controls pantry moths very well. Once I started using them, I quickly stopped seeing moths. I highly recommend.

Two years ago we had pantry moths. It too forever to get rid of them, and only because of this trap! I now keep one in the pantry, and it works. There is a little piece of paper included (contains a hormone) which attracts the moths and boom, they are stuck and die. Cruel, nah; they are destructive little terrors.

This brand used to catch a lot of moths. I loved it. For some reason, I purchased another brand awhile back. Then I purchased more Safer Pantry Pest traps. For a recent infestation, I set-up each brand. Inserted the bait into the Safer Pantry Pest trap. The other brand caught oodles of moths, so I waited 2 weeks. By then, the other brand was filled with moths. The Safer Pantry Pest, even with the special bait installed, captured only a few. The bait must not be attractive to moths anymore. It might be a fluke. It used to work well. Maybe my box was old when shipped to me. However, there is no expiration date on the box.

I hate those little buggers and are so hard to eradicate. These work well

I purchased this product and was excited to see moths attracted to it almost immediately. It REALLY DOES attract the moths AND super simple and easy to set the traps that can go anywhere. My problem with this product is the adhesive on the inside. I did remove the waxy paper to expose the sicky side, however, I have watched moths fly inside, and even walk along the stick paper. A few did stick, however, most of them just struggled a moment, and pulled away from the adhesive and flew out. I purchased the black flag equivalent at the same time and placed both of them side by side. there were about 8 moths on the Safer brand while the Black Flag Brand had about 30. I took the second one and moved it at another part of the house, and the same thing happened. Moths were both attracted to both Black Flag and Safer brand, however, Safer simply did not hold the moths once they were inside. the Adhesive needs to be reformulated to make the moths stick.

Like its brand name, this unobtrusive trap is safer in the kitchen than stinky, sticky traps. It relies on pheromones to attract those little, flying cereal/grain moth things. When it gets full (and it will if you have these bugs), just trash it. Better than having to worry about accidentally eating their eggs or finding a wing in your cookie dough!

My moth infestation started with my cockatiel's food (I think) and spread so fast I'm still not sure I've found all the larvae-friendly nooks in my apartment. I'm still baffled why I find them hovering around in my bathroom!But my poor housekeeping aside, I stood in the kitchen, opened the sealed bait packet, and dropped it onto the sticky trap. Instantly two moths were circling. A couple hours later there were ten or twelve stuck in the glue. After a week it was covered with them and I had to dispose of it.The key with these infestations is breaking the lifecycle. You have to get rid of the moths before they can reproduce, which means you need to keep catching the boys for at least a couple weeks, and doing it before the girls can exercise their charms. The best advice is to employ both a trap like this and a larvae insecticide that you apply to your walls in any room where you think the infestation started up near the ceiling. This is because when the larvae hatch they crawl upwards. They hit the insecticide barrier and die (or become unable to cocoon, I don't recall which -- same effect either way).The insecticide is very effective, I've successfully eliminated these moths in the past with it. However, it is also toxic to just about every living thing -- including your pets and you. So I hate using it in the kitchen.The third thing you must do (and which I've been lax on) is find and get rid of EVERYTHING that's infested. The infestation is obvious. The larvae form small cocoons usually in the corners of boxes and walls (look up at the angle between your wall and ceiling). But they'll also eat their way into envelopes, like packets of taco seasoning. You can spot the tiny round hole. They like dry goods, and I've even found then in soap powder. Zipper closure bags aren't effective -- they can chew through them. They can also worm their way inside of twist cap tops on jars and I recently found them inside a can of McCann's Steel Cut Oatmeal where the metal lid was firmly shut. Maybe in that case they got in when I had the can open to make oatmeal (I do not mean to suggest that the oatmeal was infested when bought it). Put dry goods into firmly sealed hard plastic or glass containers.And the final thing to do is freeze the suspect foods. Any bag of bird food that enters my apartment goes right into the freezer for at least three days. That kills the eggs. If you can keep things like flour and cereal in the fridge you'll have better luck, too.This product as an excellent part of a moth eradication program. The box contains two, and you should use them both one after the other (don't set them up in two places at once, that confuses the moths) in addition to my other steps above.

No matter what I do, pantry pests show up! I have used several brands and this by far is the best. Quick and easy to use and the bait immediately draws the pests to the casing. Place it in the area you want and then dispose of when it’s filled with those varments!

I've used Safer before to get rid of pantry moths, but this time, it's simply not working. Maybe the pack was old, and the pheromones are not strong enough. The moths are flying around but not approaching the trap at all. And this is an expensive pack!

I followed the instructions and fixed the pheromone trap. The mites were flying around the trap. Left it over night... Still flying around on the morning.
