How This Product Can Help You

This GreenWay Food Moth unit pairs the science of insect biology with the technology of a trapping system to assist you with the task of monitoring for these pests in your environment. In an Integrated Pest Management program, monitoring can ultimately help you reduce pest numbers. When paired with a trapping system, the lures do this by:

  • Telling you if the moths are present,

  • Indicating where they are coming from

  • Finally telling you whether the control measures (eg. sanitation, freezing, etc.) that you have taken are working or not

What to Expect

The traps will need to be folded into place by hand, according to the instructions on the back of the unit box. The glue pad on each trap is covered with an easily removed plastic cover that should be removed after the traps have been folded into place.

Each pheromone lure is individually packaged to keep them fresh until you are ready to place them into a trap. When you are ready to use this product, the lures should be removed from their packaging and placed in the center of the glue pads on each trap.

Although the pheromone in the lures is non-toxic, avoid direct contact with your skin if possible, or simply wash your hands with warm water and soap if contact is made. Pheromone lures are non-pesticidal and only act as a moth attractant. If the glue from the trap accidentally gets onto your hands, it is not toxic and can be easily washed off using soap and warm water.

The traps are then ready to be placed out in areas where moths are being seen to begin monitoring for food moths. These traps will give you the information that you need to reduce or remove your moth issue.
