Product Information

Open canister(s) and light the fuse on the canister furthest from your exit point first, then light the next fumer and move towards your exit point. I have noticed little clumps of debris that I believe signal that a moth has been tucked up there for a while. Unlike the many moths that are in decline, these moths – the webbing (or common) clothes moth and the case-bearing clothes moth – are believed to be increasing in numbers. Once ignited, the smoke efficiently permeates the area, killing clothes and carpet moths on contact.

Hi Simon – apologies for commenting on this old article but I have got moth issues at the moment and I remembered that you had already written about it. Additionally, the thorough coverage provided by these smoke bombs makes them a valuable component of a comprehensive moth treatment plan.

It would certainly help, but I’d say if you only wore them that often, you should still be wary of moths. I plan on wearing a respirator when spraying, and essentially swapping it out with the Formula P fumer in Simon’s post. The webbing clothes moth is thought to be a much more recent arrival; it is not described in scientific literature until the Victorian era. This product will only kill adult insects that come into contact with the smoke at the time of treatment.

Aerosol sprays and smoke bombs will kill moths, but if they have already laid their eggs then it is too late (they would soon die naturally anyway). To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. It would be disappointing to set off a smoke bomb only to have to fan the chemical ‘goodness’ out of the window to quiet a wailing alarm. I’ve still got woollen carpet in my room and the front room, but there are big holes where they’ve eaten it away,” she says.MOTH REFILL PADS 2 in 1 (WITHOUT TRAP) For control clothes and food moth (2 in 1) around the home or business Insects are attracted to the slow-release pheromone attractant in the trap pad These traps should be placed in wardrobes or areas where moth have attacked. I’m encouraging spiders in my house now; they’ve got lots of cobwebs and I’m trying to get them to catch the moths.

Smoke does not leave any residue and this its only effective within the adult insect stage, not the larvae or egg. We have collection-care assistants who are trained to go into the houses and carry this out all the time for us. Should you reuse a smoke bomb after a certain interval to then kill emergent moths, eggs that have hatched? It's good to deal with someone on the phone who understands the products and is such a good ambassador for the company. To be honest, I’ve sold it since I took these photos (originally for the Plaza Uomo cover story on me a few years ago).

Good wool stuff is like my occasion wear so worn 4-5 times a year, so dry cleaning before it gets dirty seems like a waste. HOW TO USE: Prepare the area to be treated, close all windows, remove all people, plants, and animals, and ensure fish tanks are securely sealed to prevent smoke penetration. Hello Simon, I’ve suffered from moths eating knitwear in the past, and I’m now really scrupulous with my storage methods, together with cleaning both clothes, wardrobes and drawers. NB The Pro Fumer is perfectly safe to use in smaller areas/rooms - the smoke will simply have a more concentrated effect.

I have tried to used mothballs but the smell which is emitting out from the wardrobe is really strong and I’m worried if there’s any ill effects from sleeping and breathing the fumes. Always a good idea with clothes that are in storage (though ideally they should have some breathable areas too). And yes, if you’re wearing something that often then it probably won’t get moths, and a smaller wardrobe does help. This is an ideal product to treat inaccessible areas such as loft voids, nooks and crannies, inside machinery and open room spaces.With products from the UK's leading pest control suppliers Pest Expert, this Kit has the added advantage of a pressure sprayer to enable a professional application, as well as containing 5L of Pest Expert Formula 'C+' Spray, Formula 'P' Powder, Formula 'P' Foggers and Demi Diamond Pheromone Traps.
