Well, it's funny you should ask! In a nutshell, male moths arrive intermittently throughout the year looking for a pretty female to impregnate.

The lucky female then lays her eggs in optimum nutrient-rich areas of your home. (Carpets, Clothes, food stores). One female moth can lay up to 300 eggs per year!

The eggs hatch and the larvae start eating immediately, once they grow sufficiently in size, they pupate into adults and the cycle continues.

Our moth traps work by cleverly mimicking the pheromone of a female moth (4 x the strength of a natural scent!), the male gets a whiff of this female 'perfume' and heads off in search of love. It then subsequently becomes trapped in the glue and expires.

The female moth, depressed and perhaps desperate, either leaves for pastures new or dies, resulting in NO more hungry larvae in your home..Congratulations, you have broken the breeding cycle!
