What are pantry moths?
Pantry moths are small insects that can infest homes and cause damage to food. They are often found in kitchens, pantries, and food storage areas.
Pantry moths are attracted to food, particularly grains, nuts, cereals, and dried fruit. They can also infest spices, chocolate, candies, and other dried food items.
Pantry moths lay their eggs in food, and the larvae hatch and feed on the food. This can contaminate food and make it inedible.
Finding an infestation of pantry moths can be difficult, as they are small and elusive. Signs of an infestation include webbing or clumped grains, flour, or other food items. You may also see larvae or cocoons in corners or creases of bags.
