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?
