Faicuk Moth Traps with Pheromone Attractant for Closet and Carpet (6 Pack)

The adult clothes moth measures 5-7mm in body length and 13-15mm in wing width. The larvae are milky white and 8-9mm long. Clothes moths typically have around 4 generations per year. The larvae are small white caterpillars that hide in a silky bag or net, known as a tube nest. The adult clothes moth's body is covered in bright golden scales, with a golden red head and darker antennae.

The female moth is slightly larger than the male. She can survive 3-4 weeks and lay 35-50 eggs on the surface of clothing during mating. The eggs are white, soft, and round, hatching into larvae within 5 days. The larvae feed on wool, hair, fur, and feathers, slowly causing damage to textiles and endangering animal specimens in libraries or museums. In contrast, adult moths do not feed.

The larvae can spin silk to create cocoons and store wool, upholstered furniture, fur, carpet, blankets, fish meal, and cotton-blended fabrics for consumption. They are often found in clothing storage areas and the seams of upholstered furniture. The moth's weak body limits its flight range, but they are especially attracted to textiles stained with food or other pollutants, as well as the collars and folds of clothing. Cotton clothes are less vulnerable to moth infestations.

Due to the small size of the larvae and their non-biting nature, moth infestations can be difficult to detect in the early stages. Male moths are attracted to the female's sex pheromone, and this can be exploited using artificial pheromone lures to catch the males on sticky traps. This reduces the chances of female moths being fertilized, thereby decreasing the overall moth population.

Various traps and lures are available to help control clothes moth infestations, including: - 20-Pack Clear Window Fly Traps - 20-Pack Dual Sticky Fly Traps for Houseplant Fly Insect Control - 30 Pack Yellow Dual-Sided Sticky Fly Traps for Plant Insect - 20-Pack Dual-Sided Plant Sticky Traps - 10-Pack Dual-Sided Gnats Sticky Traps - 12-Pack Clothing Moth Traps with Pheromone Attractant

These traps feature an upgraded pheromone lure that is evenly mixed into the sticky glue, eliminating the need for separate lure wafers or pills. They provide a safe, natural solution to protect clothing and furnishings from costly moth damage.
