Today I'm sharing how to get rid of pantry moths (otherwise known as Indian meal moths, grain moths or flour moths) and the best moth traps that ACTUALLY work! I'm sharing the full process of eradicating this moth infestation from finding the source, inspecting every food item (looking for signs of eggs, larvae or pupae), setting out traps, wiping down the keep items, deep cleaning the pantry and adding a natural moth repellant to keep them out in the future. Pantry moths usually make their way in to your home as eggs. Contaminated items can be flour, cereal, rice, nuts, seeds and any other type of grain as well as bird seed and pet food. Larvae can chew their way through plastic and travel long distances searching for food. You'll find larvae and pupae on the ceiling, on and inside food containers and along the edges of your shelves and storage containers. They are destructive and it takes a lot of work to get rid of them.
