Moth Pest Control: Professional Solutions for Tennessee Homes
Eliminating Moths’ Food Supply
Let’s tackle moth problems at their source – by cutting off their food supply! This straightforward approach works wonders in keeping these persistent critters from making themselves at home. With some simple storage changes and regular cleaning, you can protect your Tennessee home from unwelcome moth visitors.
Seal Dried Foodstuffs in Airtight Containers
Those pesky pantry moths love to snack on your grains, flours, nuts, seeds, dried fruits, spices, pet food, and bird seed. We recommend moving your pantry staples into airtight glass or hard plastic containers – these create a barrier that moths simply can’t get through. Take a quick peek at your stored foods from time to time to catch any early signs of trouble, rotate your food supplies rather than letting them sit for months, and keep those pantry shelves clean to remove any tempting crumbs or spills.
Properly Store Natural Garments
Clothes moths have expensive taste! They’re particularly drawn to natural fibers like cashmere, wool, silk, angora, and fur. Keep your favorite clothing safe by avoiding storage in moth-friendly spots like garages, basements, or attics. Instead, tuck seasonal items away in sealable containers or vacuum-sealed bags, and protect your everyday natural fiber clothing with cotton garment bags. For an extra layer of protection, add some lavender pouches or cedar blocks – moths hate these natural scents! And always clean your garments thoroughly before storing them to remove any food spots or oils that might attract unwanted attention.
