Pantry Moth Traps - Pheromone-Infused Adhesive Monitoring Boards

Pantry Moth Monitoring Solution

These pantry moth traps are engineered to assist in the monitoring and management of moth populations within food storage environments. By utilizing integrated pheromone attractants, the traps provide a targeted approach to identifying the presence of common pantry-dwelling moth species. The design focuses on functionality, allowing for discreet placement in areas where dry goods are stored.

Operational Mechanism

The traps function through a combination of synthetic pheromones and a high-tack adhesive surface. Once moths are attracted to the pheromone source, the adhesive layer secures the insects, preventing further movement. This mechanism allows users to assess the scale of moth activity within a specific pantry or cabinet space.

Usage and Placement Guidelines

• Placement: Position traps in areas with high moth activity, such as near flour, grains, cereals, and dried fruit storage.
• Coverage: For optimal monitoring, place one trap per pantry shelf or enclosed cabinet space.
• Maintenance: Inspect traps weekly. Replace the unit once the adhesive surface is covered or after 90 days of use, whichever occurs first.
• Environment: Keep away from direct airflow, such as open windows or ventilation fans, to maintain the concentration of the pheromone attractant.
