This company made some very interesting choices. They put the pheromone bait in a special tiny square of plastic that you have to drop onto the actual sticky surface. What this causes is a mass buildup of moths in that one tiny area of the sticky trap, and no moths anywhere else. Also, the sticky surface of the trap is quite small and doesn't utilize all of the cardboard of the trap. What sticky surface there is is not that sticky at all, actually. I've seen moths fly in, land, get scared, and fly out.
There are better pheromone moth traps, like the Pro Pest Pheronet. This one just doesn't cut it. |

| I bought and installed two of these traps 8 days ago. Let me report on the results so far. The traps have caught exactly ZERO food moths yet I killed 62 in that time myself. I am willing to believe that the product I got was "expired" or "defective" in manufacture... but it is disappointing to say the least. |

| This trap was a great fix for our moth problem! I put them on our kitchen counter and within about a month we had tons (maybe 40) in the trap. They are very easy to set up and when full, just throw them away. I think it was very affordable and well worth it for the amount of moths it caught. I even reordered the same product again to replace the full traps. |

| This does what it advertises. I had a meal moth infestation in my storage room and after one year of squashing these pests by hand, i decided to research on an easier way to kill these bugs. Luckily i came across this product which works like a charm. I no longer have to go into the storage room at 11pm to kill bugs. After a few days the problem is solved. No more bugs flying around. |

Purchased my traps at Lowes and the moths flocked to them. After a month or two I couldn't tell if the traps were still working - they had collected many moths! So I moved the old traps to a different closet and added two more traps to the pantry. all four traps are still catching moths!
So, the traps (a) lure the moths and trap them, but (b) I'm still having moths show up over three months later. I suspect the moths have dug in quite well, but I'll continue adding traps until they come up clean.
I realize that some reviewers say the traps don't work...I wonder if they opened the small envelope (~1"x1") that contained the pheromone chip, and placed (dropped) the chip onto the sticky board as the instructions directed. That chip is what draws the males to the sticky board. Without the pheromone chip, the trap will be ineffective.
When I first opened the trap I found the instructions to be not as clear as I thought they should have been - I wasn't certain how the pheromone chip was to be placed in the trap. It turns out that you just open the envelope (pouch?) and drop the chip onto the sticky board on the inside of the trap. then place the trap in the location where you believe the moths reside. The trap does the rest - safely.
I'm satisfied with the operation of the trap, but ready for the moths to be eradicated. At least they are no longer flying around my kitchen! |
