"(1)I'm curious why you have a problem with moths when you keep beatle larve...



(2)I assume they are from weavels...



(3)Freeze the bedding from the start, or change your supplier. (4)Consider a bug zapper LOL..."



(1)the moths infest my house and fly all over the place at night. they get in my cabinets and leave little brown cocoons all over my walls.

(2)the mealworms or the moths? i think weevils are beetles not moths. mealworms come from 'tenebrio molitor' or darkling beetles, they're not weevils.

(3)i do freeze the feed along with my dog and bird food for at least a week.

(4)they are not attracted to light so zappers don't work.



i just picked up these scented sticky traps that are supposed to work well, we'll see... i kinda wanted to deter them, not attract them. oh well.



thanks for helping!
