Clothes Moth Trap Replacement Strips (6 Strips in Total) - Refills for MothPrevention Moth Traps - for Closets & Clothing

This is my 3rd time ordering this product (bought the same brand w/ hanging boxes first two times before realized that these refills exist). I've bought a few of the brands on Amazon that you fold into triangles and they do work but minimal trapping. I don't have a major clothes moth problem...noticed a small moth now and then in the bedrooms and family room which has a closet where I hang lots of sweaters and jackets so decided to see if clothing moth traps attracted them...I was so surprised how many moths I trapped! I'm pretty sure all had pheromones as the attractant. Within 1/2 hr of replacing the adhesive sheet in my daughter's closet, it caught 4 moths (have had traps in the closets for almost a year now & the one I replaced there was 6 months old and in theory expired...so didn't expect to trap many if any.). BEWARE...if your u use the hanging holders, removing the ones inside can be TOUGH...I used the adhesive strip on the back to adhere to the holder...while peeling it off with the holder still folded into a box shape, the sheet came loose & stuck to the inside of the front of the box...I got adhesive on me...almost impossible to get it off - it is VERY VERY sticky. Took rubbing alcohol and then some nail polish remover to remove. I almost destroyed the outer holder in the process but was able to tape it back together. Probably a good idea to unfold the holder & then remove the strip vs. removing from it in"box" form. This time, I peeled off an inch of the protective cover on the thin adhesive strip on the back of the adhesive sheet (for securing to the box) at both the top and bottom so that less adhesive is exposed, still sticks to holder box, and it hopefully will release much easier next time. I ended up hanging the old hangers in the basement months ago since I just discovered the refills, to trap anything unlucky enough to fly inside - those had so many bugs on them, I left them there & instead adhered the strips to the wall of other closets. Now for the first time, all of our closets have this brand inside (have experimented with the triangle shaped brands one at a time as they tend to be less expensive... now can say with confidence it's well worth spending the extra money on these). Although I've only noticed moth larvae damage to one blazer and that was years ago, the fact that I'm trapping moths tells me maybe I have more damage to clothing than I know (haven't been out much for 4 years so many of my clothes are unworn).

I got this to deal with clothes moths, but over the summer I discovered that I also had pantry moths flying in through the windows, probably from a neighboring apartment. I caught hundreds of them with this trap (nice to know it serves for both types of moths - that's not true of any other trap I've tried!!!). I had these side by side with another popular clothes moth trap brand, and these out-caught moths by something like a 10:1 ratio. It's so effective that it actually helps stop an active infestation - something no other trap can do. I was scouting down the last of a clothes moth infestation in my apartment, finding eggs & larva in all kinds of places: underneath furniture legs, on the floor under bookcases, under couch cushions etc. I like to think my cleaning helped, but I give a lot of credit to these traps as they kept catching moths even after I thought I'd found all the hiding spots. I've been 100% moth free for 2 months now. Fingers crossed! Also thanks to the detection of the pantry moths, I cleaned out my kitchen cabinets and sealed away anything a pantry moth might like, and so avoided having them set up shop. I never actually saw a pantry moth flying around, only found them in the traps so I would never have known to do this otherwise. And here's the best part: you can buy refills from the manufacturer's web site (Amazon doesn't carry them) so after the initial investment in the cardboard box container, they're cheaper than any other clothes moth trap. Changing out the sticky board was easy and quick. On the slightly negative side, the paper covering the sticky boards that came from Amazon were difficult to peel off, indicating they were probably old. This wasn't true of the refills that came from the manufacturer. Fortunately, it didn't appear to affect how well they worked.

Thank goodness I found this product. I was at my wits end with a moth invasion in 4 closets. I didn’t want any moth balls that are toxic to pets and smell awful. I didn’t want any spray bombs either. I opted to try this product because I wanted something that was easy to use, safe, no odor, and highly effective. And this product gave me all of those things I was searching for in my challenge to get rid of those moths. After having caught a slew of moths, I emptied out the entire closet, cleaned it, disinfected it, got rid of the few damaged pieces in the closet, shook every single piece of clothing I had in the closet and returned them to a “moth free” environment. I highly recommend this product.

Out of all the brands i've tried this brand has been the most effective against closet moths. Only reason it's 4/5 is that it can be hard to add back into the original trap.

This product works. I had a major carpet moth infestation. Thank you!!

It is effective and maybe one of the best. It is expensive compared to other but less expensive than the one that I have used. The issues are assembly and replacements. The instructions look simple. However there is not much space to insert the refill as you have to insert from either the top or bottom, and if any of sticky surface touches the housing case, which is made of paper, both the insert and the case will become not useful. You will lose $15+. For replacement it is a challenge. There is a fine sticky line on the back to hold it steady and you will need to lift it up. There is a good chance the sticky surface will stick to the housing case. Then you have to throw away the housing case - another $8 loss. The housing case is supposed to be re-usable but it is made of paper. They won’t last. Lastly there is always a chance part of the clothing items such as ties, strings, threads may touch the sticky surface

It works

These traps work very well. One suggestion would be to make the box for the refills more durable. If the replacement strip accidentally makes contact with the box, removing it ofter rips the box.
