✅ What it is & claimed features
It is marketed as a 10‑pack of sticky moth traps with a double pheromone lure (i.e. aiming to attract more moths) for use in wardrobes, carpets, etc. OnBuy Landing
It claims to be non‑toxic and odourless (i.e. no chemical smell) because it relies on pheromone + adhesive rather than insecticide. OnBuy Landing
It’s designed to target the common clothes moth and case‑bearing / carpet moth species by using lure that mimics female moth pheromones in order to attract males. OnBuy Landing
The traps are meant to be placed in wardrobes, along skirting boards, under furniture, dark corners, etc. OnBuy Landing
⚠️ Effectiveness, limitations & cautions
Because the traps only attract male moths (via pheromone), they don’t catch eggs, larvae, or females already hidden. So they are best used as part of an integrated control approach—not a sole solution.
In heavier infestations, you may still need additional treatments (cleaning, washing, insecticides, vacuuming) to tackle larvae, eggs, and more hidden areas.
Pheromone lures degrade over time (exposure to heat, light) so their effectiveness will diminish—so periodic replacement is necessary (often every few weeks to a few months, depending on the product).
There is a possible risk that very high pheromone concentration in a trap could pull moths from adjacent areas; in some forums people express concern that traps might “attract more” rather than only capturing local ones. (Though in most practical cases, the benefit of interrupting breeding tends to outweigh that risk.)

🛠️ Practical tips & suggestion
Place traps strategically — in wardrobes, corners, under furniture, along skirting boards, dark places where moths go.
Use multiple traps in each problem area for better coverage.
Combine with cleaning / treatment — wash clothes at high temperature, vacuum carpets & edges, clean infested areas.
Replace traps or lures regularly when the attractant becomes weak (often every 2–3 months or as per instructions).
Monitor over time — count how many moths you catch to see whether the infestation is reducing.
