If food moths have appeared in a drawer where cereals and flour are stored, then the products must be disposed of immediately.
Immediately after this, it is necessary to wash the cabinets.
It is important to find the insect nest where the larvae remain.
In this case, you need to check the baseboards, the inner corners of cabinets and cupboards, the oven, the bread bin, and so on.
You may have to throw out all other opened packages of buckwheat, flour or pasta.
All surfaces should be vacuumed and then washed with a simple and homemade solution. To do this, add vinegar (1 to 1) or laundry soap (1 bar per 1 liter of water) to the water.
The remaining cereals and other products must be poured into glass or plastic containers. It is important that the containers close tightly.
You should also lay out additional means that repel pests with their smell. For example, this could be garlic, tobacco, bay leaf or lavender.
