Works great, better than other brands

These traps work great and catch clothes moths. They work better than other brands I've tried. My only minor complaint about the product is that the small tab that is tucked in to fold it into a triangle needs to be longer as it is often undone. If you're reading this because you've already seen a bunch of moths, you're in for a fight. As a good start, follow the instructions on the traps. Most importantly, don't become complacent. It will take time and you will have to control yourself. I hope this saves someone from the nightmare I was having. Other tips from what I've learned: - Take those moth traps and put a few in every closet, even the ones you haven't seen moths in. Hang one trap from above and place the other on the ground. - Look for signs of moth activity (mainly cobwebs and larvae) - If you see moth activity on clothes just throw them away. Don't try to save it if you don't care. If you must leave an item that already shows signs of moths, take it to the dry cleaner immediately. Tell the cleaners you have clothes moths so they can be careful. Dry cleaning can cause moth holes to get bigger, so don't be surprised if that happens. - Once you see the moths, you need to take everything out of the closet and clean it. All. Even if it looks good. Comb, wash hot, dry clean. (I've read that just washing clothes won't get rid of the eggs, but while it's not ideal, I can't imagine it doing literally nothing.) Wash floors, walls, and closet shelves with your strongest cleaner. you can clean Also check the boxes and anything else you keep in your closet like scarves, mittens, hats etc. They end up in weird places (I found moth webs at the bottom of the heel of the dress). Clean carpets. If you have pets, check all of their beds, including the bottom. Carpet-based scratching posts present a particular problem. (I had to throw out three cat beds and one scratching post.) - Know that even airtight sealing isn't going to solve the problem. I took wool clothes and vacuumed them only to take them out and find live larvae and holes. These suction cups are durable. Leave the closet open, get everything out, bring the light into the room, turn on the fan. Moths do not like light and air. Keep everything you need in clear plastic bags - skip the black ones. Periodically check and repeat all of these cleanings. Weekly at first, then at least monthly. Change your moth traps as often as they tell you to. Check if your home insurance covers insect damage. Take pictures of things if you need insurance. If you've seen moths, especially a lot, don't wait. Spend a weekend cleaning, buy moth traps, pay for dry cleaning, throw away what you don't need to save.
