Entopest Common Clothes Moth Trap
Pheromone moth pads are a popular device to locate, monitor and control emerging Common Clothes Moth (Tineola bisselliella) infestations. The pheromone has been chemically reproduced to a very high standard to attract the male moth species to land on the adhesive pad. By attracting male moths, you reduce the likelihood of reproduction and prevent or quicken any control treatment.
Pheromone pads measure 133mm x 60mm and are designed to be used within our plastic moth hangers.
Entopest have a range of kits include hangers and pheromone pads for attracting active male moths (please see title for qty included within the kit listing). We also sell both the hangers and pads individually if you require replacement refills.
Moth pheromone has not been designed as the sole control solution. We recommend that they be used in combination with other insecticide treatments, especially within larger and established infestations. Entopest pheromone traps should be considered the first method of control as users can quickly identify active locations; users can then concentrate treatments within these areas.
Entopest pheromone pads are used by both professional and amateur users.
This pheromone pad will attract the male Common Clothes Moth (Tineola bisselliella) only. Please do not purchase to control other moths as the pheromone will not work.
Moth Pheromone Control
Used for the control of Common Clothes Moth
Tineola bisselliella sex pheromones are released by the female moth to attract the male for reproduction. The Entopest pheromone has been carefully artificially reproduced and impregnated over the entire surface of the pads.
When placed within an active infestation, the pads will attract the active males and prevent reproduction.
Pheromone pads should not be considered the sole treatment method. For established infestations, use the pads in combination with our insecticide kits.
