Last month I discovered lots of little blackheads in my packets of flour and pasta...
Food moths in my house! We had to act quickly before it was the disaster...
But there is no question of using chemicals next to food. In addition, it is not cheap...
Fortunately, there is an effective home remedy to get rid of food moths for good.
The tried and true trick is to place a bowl of apple cider vinegar with washing up liquid in the cupboard . Watch:
- 750 ml cider vinegar
- a few drops of washing-up liquid
- bowl
1. Pour the apple cider vinegar into the bowl.
2. Add dishwashing liquid.
3. Put the bowl in the infested closet.
4. Leave to act for a week.
5. Once the majority of insects have been exterminated, empty the closet.
6. Discard all wheat products (packages of flour, pasta, rusks and bread).
7. Clean every nook and cranny of cupboards, even boxes, with a mixture of water, white vinegar and dishwashing liquid.
And There you go ! Thanks to this grandmother's trick, no more food moths in the closet :-)
Simple, fast and efficient, right?
With this easy recipe you get rid of these insects easily.
Now you know what to do if you see an invasion!
Moths will be attracted to this mixture and will drown in it.
Not very nice... but you shouldn't nibble on my provisions!
I can tell you that thanks to this homemade trap , I don't have any more at home.
This natural treatment is also particularly economical and practical.
No need to run to the supermarket to buy moth repellent!
And know that it is not worth waiting to see them in your food packets to act.
You can set up your bowls full of apple cider vinegar and dish soap before those critters even appear.
Do you know they don't have a preferred season ? They can be present all year round.
So don't wait to act preventively!
This treatment is 100% natural and does not require the use of insecticides like Kapo.
By spraying these toxic products, you can say goodbye to all the provisions in your cupboard.
Why ? Simply because they are harmful to us too. What a waste!
If you have a large cupboard, you can divide the mixture into 2 bowls to put on either side of the cupboard.
Apple cider vinegar attracts moths with its acrid, sweet smell.
Trust me, food moths can't resist!
Then the dishwashing liquid will "stick" the insects and accelerate drowning.
