Any tips on how to keep these f***ers out of our pantry?? We cleaned it a few months ago but the f***ers managed to get back in somehow :/

These things worked a treat for getting rid of little buggers. You set it up and a week or two later find like 15 dead moths stuck to the glue inside :o

Keep dry goods - i.e. flour, brown sugar etc in the freezer. I sprinkle a few dried bay leaves on each shelf and this keeps moths and ants at bay.

I used the same sort of thing that icewyrm suggested, cost about $10 for two from woolies. Killed heaps of moths and made my problems go away. Then I threw them out cause they got festy, and within a week I had heaps of moths everywhere again. Bought some more, problem solved again.
If you're after a long term solution then it's probably worth throwing away all grain type foods and starting again with everything in air-tight containers, but for a quick fix just get some of the baits.. |

You've probably got grubs in something in there, check all your food.

All wheats and pastas etc etc will develop weavels. It's inevitable.
If u put them in the freezer for 24-48 hours it will kill all the eggs though. |

why do moths fly with their legs so far apart?
Spoiler: you ever see the size of a mothball? |
