CARPET AND CLOTHES MOTH TRAPS. 7 Pack of Pesticide Free, Sticky Pheromone Traps That Attract, Catch and Kill Carpet and Clothes Moths and Monitor Activity.

The carpet moths love this product and it has helped us to reduce our carpet moth population considerably.

Update: these do catch clothes moths, but not many and I suspect my other methods of using a spider vacuum, fly spray, sticky fly tape and moth killer sachets and sprays is having an impact as well. I have caught clothes moths in ‘hot spots’ where I have also seen them flying and where my manual extraction for release outside (well away from the house) has also been most fruitful. I imagine it is mainly the male moth, but I don’t know how to tell the male and female moths apart and the indiscriminate nature of these traps, which still catch other insects, means females might also have been trapped.When I first identified clothes moths in my rented house, soon after arrival, they had not been treated by the previous homeowners and I caught 25 in just one evening. I have become more of an expert in the last few months and know where to find them and do a sweep of the house in the morning and evening, still catching an average of maybe 30 per week, which is far fewer than my initial haul, but still high despite all of the measures I have in place.I don’t feel I have yet found the perfect product or products for dealing with these moths, but the situation is being controlled to ensure the 25 caught in one evening has not burgeoned further. The sticky traps do catch clothes moths and help you to see there is an issue perhaps before it gets out of hand and may also help to eliminate male moths and thus reduce the potential for more to arrive, but I don’t think they will resolve the issue on their own and, when you have precious woollen items, you may wish to just throw everything at the problem, of which this is one component and a helpful monitoring one that gives a visual indication of the presence of moths before you might otherwise have seen them.I have purchased many packs now.************************************** original review follows **********************************I don’t know that these work to catch moths because, although we have the moths present in the house, none have been caught by this. What they have caught is a large spider, two wood lice and several smaller spiders, so they don’t only attract the male of the clothes/carpet moths that are the problem, but other insects as well (or instead of). So, they appear to be indiscriminate catchers of insects and, in the absence of having caught any clothes moths, they don’t seem to do that job. I will come back to update one way or the other, but it isn’t looking like a success at this point and I don’t like the fact I am catching other insects, particularly as there is no sign of a single moth.

Item ok

After using another brand which worked quite well but was a bit pricier, I thought lets try out one of the cheaper products with still very good reviews.To sum up my experience: If you put a glass of water in your room, the chances of a moth randomly drowning in the water glass are HIGHER than the chance of this "trap" catching anything other than dust. I used 4 traps in all of the rooms and after 3 weeks there is ONE moth in ONE of the traps. Instead you see the moths at the wall and everywhere around the flat other than in that "trap".So to sum up: the only thing this trap catches is you; you spend your money and you get nothing in return, thus it successfully tricked you.Don't do the same mistake as I did. Don't buy.

We've had these in place for a fortnight, including a week where we were away and no doors or windows were open for any moths to escape - not a single one has been caught. Completely useless expensive sticky card!** REVISION **Had a pest controller advise me on our moth problem and the first thing he said when I said the traps 'didn't work' was to not blame the manufacturer - the pheromones will be very specific to only the male of a particular breed, so it doesn't mean the product doesn't work. So changing my review from 1 to 3 stars!To anyone with a similar problem, we suspect we have 'white-shouldered' moths which are more commonly attracted to seed and cereal! But they do nibble on fabrics too, such as wool coats etc. Hope that helps someone else!!

I have bought these Moth Traps for over two years now to try to eliminate a chronic moth infestation.The traps work really well in enticing and trapping (Male) moths for up to two months. Over time there will be less and less (Male) moths trapped. However, it’s a good idea to keep using the traps in case more moths enter the home and start the infestation all over again. I can really recommend Pro Moth Traps.

About 6 months ago we bacame aware of a carpet moth problem in our home, as a result of which we spent more than £100 on various moth killers (powders, sprays, moth balls, smoke bombs). We didn't mess about, if ou know what I mean ;)Initially I had read that pheromone traps were all but useless in fighting a moth infestation, but later discovered that it's all about what you use them for. Apparently professional pest control people use moth traps not to kill moths but to identify whether moths are present in a particular room and to gauge the extent of the infestation.That's how I've been using these for the past few months - I do the sprays, the powders, and the moth balls in cupboards and drawers, wait a month or so, then leave these pheromone traps in dark places loved by mohs, such as under beds and in built-in wardrobes, and see if I catch anything.I like these traps as they are cheaper than most alternatives, are quite discreet (e.g. can be placed under the bed or in a wardrobe where they won't be seen by viditors), and they work! After our first round of moth extermination I caught two moths in my traps, then I re-applied my various moth killers, and now I haven't caught anything for 3 months! It's great, as it saves you from wasting expensive moth sprays and powders on rooms with no moths in them, not to metion the hassle and the pain of keeping your dog out of the areas you've sprayed, etc.I'll be definitely buying again and leaving these traps around the house as an early warning system. I think we've managed to get rid of the moth problem in our house for now, but I'm aware that the little b*ards can easily be re-introduced... It is good to know that I will not have to spray and powder any rooms again until I catch a moth. They are my peace of mind pheromone traps :)
