    Sigh. Remembered that I saw a moth or two flying around… I forgot to freeze my dry goods to kill any eggs from the supermarket and then didn’t keep them sealed properly. -_- Persistent little bastards.

    Whatever, I’ll throw the food out. I won’t eat it anyway. Hopefully there aren’t any clothes moths because I am not hot washing and drying everything and vacuuming is a stress on the cat

    I need to clean this place though -_-

      Better fucking not be clothes moths!

      Bunnings has pheromone glue traps for pantry moths as well, if you find you’re seeing those bastards!

        packing my husbands armani and boss suits

        no matter how much I nagged him to look after them I found some moth eaten pants on the floor of his wardrobe where they had fallen😠

        I would chase every moth , told him to as well, I put up traps and deterrents, I tried to make sure the doors were closed, he just doesn’t seem able or just doesn’t care . Same with his jumpers.

        Yeah I’ve got the traps in the pantry already. They might be intended more as detectors but I reason if male moths are getting stuck it might help disrupt the breeding

          Nice! And that’s it exactly! As long as some get stuck, then they won’t breed!

          My clothes moths traps have trapped so many! I’m planning on buying more to get as many as possible! It’s a great method and means you’re not using insect spray (which isn’t great for humans, and definitely not cats!)
