Indian Meal Moth
The Indian Meal Moth is the most common pantry pest found in homes and apartments. Found in a wide variety of food items including flour, cereal, nuts, grains, chocolate, birdseed and dried pet foods. This pest usually enters homes in boxes or bags of infested foods.
If you find Indian Meal Moths in your apartment or house, this is usually solved very easily with one treatment. Depending on infestation levels, you may need a few follow up treatments. We advise discarding all of the infested food and inspect all of the surrounding food thoroughly. Our motto: ”When in doubt, throw it out”. Once this has been done, you will need to empty the cabinets. Advanced Exterminating can then properly treat cabinets and the cracks and crevices for hiding larvae, which will prevent re-infestation.
Commercial environments such as Bakeries or Granaries need an inspection and a customized, well thought out treatment plan.
