Follow all safety recommendations as outlined in the directions. This includes wearing gloves, masks, and ensuring that any room you treat has adequate airflow.
Be sure to first remove any items that can be contaminated by the chemicals in the fogger, such as pots, pans, foodstuffs, water, toys, plants, and pets. If you cannot remove everything, cover them up and put them somewhere safe. The same applies to food-processing equipment, utensils, and aquariums. Step 3 - Confine The Area & Expose Affected Surfaces Pantry moths, which love to feed on stored foods, are usually one or more of the following: Indian Meal Moths, Mediterranean Pantry Moths, White Shouldered House Moths, or Brown House Moths. If you're dealing with a pantry moth infestation, we recommend using Dr. Killigan's Premium Pantry Moth Traps.
The best initial line of defence is always to put either Clothes Moth Traps or Food Moth Trapsin place. This will alert you to the presence of adult Clothes Moths and can be used as a perpetual form of monitoring. If you are using powders, be sure to thoroughly vacuum after they have been in place long enough to take effect. If you are using mothballs, positioning sachets, or other similar products, keep them out of reach of young children and pets to avoid ingestion. How to Protect Yourself During Moth Treatment Carolyn Klass, Beetles Infesting Woolens Factsheet (PDF), Cornell Insect Diagnostic Laboratory, 1972, updated 2013 Moths do not bite. What you think may be the result of a bite is but an allergic reaction. The wings of clothes moths contain protein-based allergens. Like any allergies, it is but a matter of probability that you may be sensitive. In general, clothes moths and their larvae do not possess urticant hairs. But other species can shed such irritant hairs in your environment and bedsheets and you could get sting marks as a result. The National Trust uses pheromone traps as part of its monitoring programme – this doesn’t control the population, but gives an indication of the scale of the problem. The main approach for controlling numbers is regular cleaning. “Often that can be enough,” says Blades. “In some cases where we need to go beyond that, we use a commercial product called Constrain, which has a residual effect for a number of months. We use that to treat nooks and crannies where moths might like to hide away.” The National Trust has done a trial using tiny parasitic wasps, which seek out moths’ eggs and lay their own inside, hatching new wasps. (These wasps aren’t harmful to humans, don’t live long and are so small that you would barely notice them among house dust.) This was carried out in one property, but Blades says it isn’t yet clear how effective it has been.
Never use more than 1 fogger in a room. A single 6oz fogger is usually enough to cover 25ft by 25ft feet of space. Residual moth sprays can be incredibly effective for killing moth larvae and eggs. You can also kill moth larvae and eggs using hot soapy water or by freezing them for at least 72 hours. Post-Bomb Cleanup: After using a flea bomb, open all windows for fresh air circulation, then hoover treated areas thoroughly using an outdoor trash can – flooring, carpets, and furniture should all be treated equally.Jason Dombroskie, manager at the Cornell University Insect Collection and coordinator of the Insect Diagnostic Lab, phone interview, March 15, 2018 INTEGRAL PART OF MOTH TREATMENT - When dealing with a moth infestation, these Moth Smoke Bombs are an essential component of an effective treatment plan, working alongside other carpet moth treatment methods to eliminate moths in the airspace.
