Die moths. Die.I generally do not review a product the same day that I make a purchase, unless it's either very good, or very bad.MaxGuard Clothes Moths Traps are better than good.I've recently been at war with an army of invading moths. You know that part in the story of the Exodus where Moses begins calling down plagues from heaven, and one natural disaster is the precipitate to a myriad of other subsequent disasters? Yep. That's been my life for the past two months. Replace the plague of locusts with moths and you get the idea.It began with a bag of old blankets and stuffed animals that I removed from my parents' basement, at their request, as it had been stored there for several decades. After seeing a few moths fly out of the bag I decided not to keep most of the items. They that I kept were promptly washed. That did not solve the problem as I assumed that it would.I won't recount the full details of my ordeal here, but let's just say that my cats and I are going to need therapy from the trauma of having these flying, clothes-eating, cat tree loving, demons, tormenting us for several months.Most people are naturally aware of the fact that both kinds of clothes/carpet moths (case-bearing and webbing) like natural fibers such as wool, leather, feathers, fur, etc., but we assume that an infestation would be limited to items in our closets like sweaters and socks. They are attracted to things that contain keratin, which is found in most natural or organic products.I have cats. Cats have fur. Guess what is in cat hair? Keratin.So, what began as a few moths flying out of a bag and feasting on my favourite sweaters, some towels, and some socks, turned into an all-out invasion in which these winged monsters from the pit of hell were making their homes in my cats' beds, trees, and toy buckets.I spent a good deal of money on moth balls which made my cats sick. Duh! Then I purchased a ton of cedar products. Trial and error. I bought CedarSpace cedar blocks off of Amazon and those worked so well that within a week there was about an 85% reduction in the amount of moths. I'm also a clean freak by nature so of course I've been vacuuming the heck out of everything as well as shampooing my carpets and cats' trees, as well as trashing most of the items that have moth larvae attached. The items that I'm not willing to or cannot part with are being thoroughly vacuumed and washed with Angry Orange, which seems to help tremendously.There's been an improvement, however, there are still a few flying around. Those few can easily lead to being a few hundred within a week or so, since female moths lay approximately 40-50 eggs at a time. As previously mentioned, I have cats. Cats have fur. Moths love fur.I'm not taking any chances on revisiting the chaos of the previous weeks, so when I saw a few of these brazen little effers flying around my apartment, despite the drastic improvement by using cedar blocks, I frantically searched Amazon for another product that I could spend my hard-earned money on that would work to kill the remaining moths.There was a myriad of moth traps that showed up in my search results. While I'm sure that most of them are good, my experience has been so traumatic that I don't want good ... I want great.After a period of deliberation, I decided to purchase these traps by MaxGuard. It was quite possibly the best financial decision regarding moth killing products that I've made since late August.No exaggeration - literally within less than two minutes after opening the package and folding just one of the traps, the remaining moths that had been hiding emerged from the pit of hell where they live and began circling the area. In less than five minutes one was snagged and was lying there as an example to all of the other moths that they'd better find somewhere else to be fruitful and multiply! In less than ten minutes, three more were snagged. Then another, and another ...Maybe you're thinking that five to seven moths in about ten minutes time doesn't sound like many, but keep in mind that presently, there aren't many left in my apartment. They that remain will meet their fate in a MaxGuard moth trap.Carpet and clothes moths are slightly different. Well now ... I had both kinds, (case-bearing and webbing) which is partly why my ordeal was an all out war between my cats and I, and this army of winged invaders. It was so bad that I think my experience may qualify as a low budget feature film at a sci-fi convention: Moths From Hell. Picture me and twelve cats running from moths like Tippi Hedren ran from the psychotic birds in Hitchcock's 1963 classic.MaxGuard moth traps live up to its claims of attracting both types. They are very easy to put together - it takes less than a minute - and the results are immediately noticeable. It's money well spent.If I could give more than five stars to this product, I would. While my cats and I still have PTSD from the moth war of 2023, MaxGuard Clothes Moth Traps are an invaluable investment into peace of mind, and moth elimination. It's like a whole lotta zen in one nicely packaged glue trap.

These worked immediately. Others I bought did not. Don’t see any flying around in the room any longer. Will continue using this brand. Well worth the price. Highly recommend.The SherwoodsI need to update my review to say these continue to do an excellent job. I have reordered several times as they fill up so fast and I can’t stand to look at them so I throw them away. I will place them in a few other places around the house also. The cost of getting an exterminator is so expensive so I’m hoping these continue to do the job for us.

I have lived here 10 years and never had moths before. Ordered these and was getting some but they have now apparently hatched new ones. I researched and found that the heat is more of an attractant than light. Placed thetraps in warmer laundry room and on slatted door to furnace room and have caught many more. Will keep using these but also try the flatten out to hang up someone recommended. I agree it is not easy to eradicate these but will keep trying. I have no clue how they got inside to begin with

If you have moths these work ! Saw a few moths in my closet so I put these out . This is the result after a few weeks . I had no idea that there were so many in my closet . Hoping to capture the males in the traps and the females will die off solving my problem ! I’m not a fan of chemicals or pesticides and these have NONE of that !

These do not work at all. I used to buy a moth trap from Lowe’s that had a little square piece of what looked like pink bubble gum. Within weeks they were so filled with the moths that game down with us from when we lived in VT that we replaced them regularly and were able to get them almost wiped out. Then the company stopped putting the pink pheromone in their traps. I have been trying to find another brand that works. This company advertised they include the pheromone. Not one single moth has been caught and I bought both the pantry and the clothing traps..waste of money!

Loaded with moths in utility room

As soon as I set up the traps, the moths were going inside. I have caught so many already and I hope it gets rid of all of them soon.

Bought May 3, put 4 out in 1 bedroom, 1 walk in closet, the ensuite and hallway. Caught nothing in the 12 days the traps have been set up.Saw 3-4 moths (that we killed, not the traps) during the time the traps have been set up. Last night (May 15) after I killed 1, I opened a trap and flattened it onto a straight flat shape not the triangle they say to fold it into. This morning it had 1 moth on it.So either they are not very attracted to the traps or folding into the directed triangle is not smart or maybe we just don’t have many (?), I don’t know but it SEEMS to me that the moths are not very attracted to these traps.I’ll update if the flat open traps suddenly start attracting more moths but I really dislike when products don’t work as claimed. My house is full of wool rugs and I bought these traps based on recommendations and photos in reviews. <shrug>Edit as of June 10th:Primary bedroom trap: 3 mothsPrimary bedroom ensuite trap: 0 moths (but we’ve killed them in bathroom)Primary bedroom closet trap: 0 mothsHallway trap: 5 mothsMain hallway bath we’ve killed them here but has no trap (adding tonight!)Family room trap: 1 moth but it was “manually caught” by me waving the trap around like a fool and we’ve killed more in this room ourselvesThis is so frustrating!
