Non-poison glue trap that catches harmful pantry and clothes moths
- pantry moth infestation in dry food
- clothes moths in closets
- wanting chemical-free pest control
Catch pantry moths before they reach your food
Moths are already flying through your pantry and closets, and sprays feel like the wrong fix. This non-poison glue trap sits where they land and holds them, so you can see what it catches.
A simple tent that traps what flies in
Triangle tent that catches what lands
The free-standing triangular shape holds a sticky inner surface on both sides of the tent. Moths that come in low to investigate a food bag land on the glue and stay there. Each trap is a single folded sheet, so it stands on a shelf or hangs from the top tab without extra parts.
No poison near your food
The trap works on adhesive alone. There is no insecticide, no spray and no fog, so it sits safely beside pasta, cereal and cookies. You do not have to clear the shelf or air the room before you restock.
Ready in under a minute
- 1Open the foil pouch
Tear the sealed outer pouch along the edge. The kraft-brown trap sits flat inside.
- 2Peel the back paper
Remove the white protective paper from the back to expose the sticky inner surface. Keep the tacky side away from your fingers and fabric.
- 3Fold into a tent
Fold the head and tail so the trap stands as a triangle. Hang it by the top tab in a closet, or set it upright on a shelf close to the dry goods.
What you receive
- Sealed foil outer pouch
Protects the adhesive until you open it
- Printed kraft trap tent
Free-standing triangle with a sticky inner surface and a hanging tab
- White protective back paper
Peel off before use so the glue is exposed
Webbing in the flour, again
The bag you almost threw out
You open the flour or cereal and find fine webbing near the top. Then a moth lifts off the rim. Throwing out one bag is annoying. Finding it in three jars means the moths are already breeding in your cupboard.
A simple place to catch them
The trap is a folded kraft triangle with adhesive on the inside. Set it on a shelf next to the dry goods or hang it in the closet. Nothing is sprayed, and no fumes settle on the food or the wool you keep beside it.
Checking what it caught
Lift the trap at the edges and look at the glue. Captured moths show you what is active in that spot. Replace the trap when the surface is full or dusty, and keep checking your dry goods for new webbing.

Questions and answers
Yes. The adhesive holds the adult moths that fly through pantry and closet spaces, and the trap is labeled for pantry moths and other harmful moths. Clothes moths are the ones that leave moth clothes holes in wool, so a trap in the closet is the right place to watch for them.
There is no insecticide in the trap, so it can sit on a shelf beside dry goods. Keep it out of reach of small children, and hang it higher if a pet tends to bat at things. The glue is the only hazard, so keep the sticky side away from hair and fabric.
Set one trap close to the food that has webbing, such as flour, cereal or grains. Hang another inside the closet near wool or stored fabric. Moths stay near their food and fabric, so a trap in the middle of a large room catches far fewer.
Check it weekly, and note the date you placed it. Catches show you the moth activity in that spot. They do not confirm every moth in the home is gone, so keep inspecting dry goods for new webbing.
Replace the trap once the glue is full or dusty, since a covered surface stops catching. Compared with throwing out a bag of flour or a sweater, a single trap is a low cost way to keep your food and clothes intact.
Moth balls release a chemical into the closet air, which is a poor fit near food. This trap has no chemical at all. It catches the adults on the glue, so you can see what is active instead of guessing.
