⚡ At a Glance
- • Attraction Method: Pheromone-blend lures male moths to a sticky, glue-coated inner surface
- • Best for: Early detection in wardrobes, drawers, carpets and loft insulation
- • Not ideal for: Infestations caused by pantry, wax or house moth species
Pheromone-infused glue attracts male clothes moths, helping to measure and monitor infestation. Kit includes ten traps, ten glowing pads and a lavender sachet for monitoring and a pleasant storage scent.
Catch Moths Before They Breed – With pheromone-laced sticky traps
A pheromone blend mimics female moth signals to attract male Common Webbing Moths, Case-Bearing Carpet Moths and Pale-Backed Moths to the glue-coated inner surface. Male moths become stuck, giving an early indication of local breeding activity.
Early detection reduces fabric damage risk by signalling infestations while they are still small, so targeted cleaning and isolation can follow quickly.
Visible Monitoring in Low Light – Thanks to included light-emitting pads
Small glowing pads fit with the traps to improve visibility in wardrobes, under furniture and in loft spaces at night or in dim cupboards. Pads make inspection quicker without needing to disturb stored items.
Quicker checks and less rummaging mean easier routine monitoring, especially for lofts and dark storage where moths often hide.
Pleasant, Chemical-Free Storage – With a natural lavender sachet
A small pouch of dried lavender is included for a fresh scent while traps remain odourless and free from Transfluthrin or naphthalene. Glue is the active capture element rather than biocidal vapours.
Wardrobes and drawers remain pleasant to open, while avoiding toxic fumigants, making the kit suitable for homes with pets and children.
