Bug identification needed
Posted on 8/28/16 at 9:17 pm

These little buggers have been hanging out in my pantry and I can't find out where they are coming from. I've pulled everything out and even after killing them they come back. They hang out in the ceiling area. Any ideas on what they are?

There was a thread on the food board about these
You are really going to have to get rid of almost everything and start over in your pantry. And buy special containers to start holding each item in.

Indian moth. Need to get rid of flour type products. Amazon sells traps that work well

Fulcrum moths. They eat dirt. They're harmless but they smell bad when you kill them.

Thanks for the help. I put all my flour in ziploc bags so I'm looking for any other loose ends now.

We start putting our grains and the like in our fridge and freezer. The moths were able to get through the zip locks somehow. Start checking for a webbing in your containers, it's a pretty tell-tale sign the larvae/worm/pupae has been in the product. Someone has already mentioned the traps. They work. Our moths were introduced initially through bags of dog food from Petco.
Good luck in your eradication.

They will bore through them from what I remember reading. You will have to throw all that out.
Seriously look up the thread I mentioned earlier

Yeah, I just now noticed that some of the ziplocks have bugs in them. That's crazy.

They are resilient frickers, but aren't as bad as bed bugs.
Anecdotal, as I haven't dealt with bed bugs myself.
