Pantry moths (and caterpillars) are small insects found indoors in locations where dried food packages are stored. They are known to cause unpleasant damage to food, spoiling it as it becomes invaded by pantry moths’ larvae. Signs of pantry moth infestations include webbing along the corners of packages or on the product inside, flour or cereal products with an unpleasant odor and sticky secretions that cause grains to clump together. Pantry moth infestations require pesticides to treat an infestation. Cleaning the affected area include vacuuming and scrubbing with water and soap. Infested food must be thrown away, and containers made of glass, tightly sealed metal or hard plastic should be used to store dried panty foods.
