TERRO Pantry Moth Traps

The traps use a non-toxic pheromone lure that mimics the scent of female moths. This scent draws male moths into the trap, where they become stuck to the adhesive surface, effectively breaking the breeding cycle.

Yes. Because the traps rely on a pheromone lure rather than harsh chemicals or insecticides, they are safe to place in areas where food is stored.

These traps are specifically designed to target common pantry moths, such as Indian meal moths, almond moths, and Mediterranean flour moths. They will not be effective against clothes moths or other species that are not attracted to the specific pheromone used.

For most standard pantries, one or two traps are sufficient to monitor and manage activity. If you have a large pantry or multiple storage areas, place one trap in each section to ensure full coverage.

The pheromone lure typically remains effective for up to three months. You should replace the trap once the lure loses its potency or the adhesive surface becomes covered with captured moths.
