I found some grits they were in and thought that was it. I kill them every morning and when I get home, they are relentless. I finally found another source. I had some old Dog treats in a bottom cabinet I forgot about. I have dark oak cabinets and look for them as habit now. I might miss the little bastards.

Freeze everything that you can.

Mix boric acid with corn flour or wheat flour and leave it out. They'll lay eggs in it and die.

Plastic containers for serial and rice help. We bagged all cereals with a Seal-a-meal.

You want to get yourself some big attack spiders. They clean those moths out real quick, savvy?

I'm plagued with them as well, not enough spiders this year for some reason (I never remove a kitchen spider)

The ones Im talking about are always food related, just need to find what old shit you got.

I keep everything in plastic containers now so it should be good? I did find one inside some couscous because it came in just a cardboard box for some reason

I'm going to rip out all the cabinets soon so maybe that will turn something up.

There are moth traps that work fairly well, they use pheromones to attract the moths to sticky paper. Seems like you're keeping ahead of their potential food sources, just make sure everything is sealed.

Yeah, you got to get the source and then they are gone. The hunt gave me purpose.

I had a problem with those fuckers once. I threw a bunch of shit out. Then I wiped everything with a vinegar water solution. Did the trick.
