Almond moth damage occurs during the larval phase. Granular frass the size of ground pepper can be found in food materials such as nuts, dried fruits, cereals and processed foods containing nuts or seeds and made from wheat, rice, or corn.

This All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit includes 10 or 100 (select your quantity) complete All Beetle traps, 10 or 100 dermestid attractant lures, 10 pheromone Bullet Lures™ for Varied Carpet Beetles (Anthrenus verbasci), and Black Carpet Beetle, (Attagenus unicolor), as well as a glue board specifically designed to fit the All Beetle trap removable tray.

Black Carpet Beetles are commonly found in processed foods such as, spices, biscuits, meal, four, seeds, and dog food, but can also attack horn, untreated hides, wool, hair, silk, and dead insects. The black carpet beetle is a common household pest.

Only larvae cause damage to plant or animal products or textiles. The presence of cast skins is usually apparent. Holes and frayed fibers in textiles also may be present.

The set of Clothes Moth Bullet Lures™ (IL-123) features Insect Limited’s signature pheromone Bullet Lures™ that attract three separate species of clothes moth with a controlled release of pheromone over 3 months. Male clothes moths are attracted to the lure and are readily stuck in the glue when paired with a sticky trap trapping system.

Only Brown-Dotted Clothes Moth larvae cause damage. Larvae feed on dried animal and plant material, most often in bird nests and poultry houses, and infrequently on cloth and fiber products.

The All Beetle Trap Kit with gel includes complete All Beetle traps and multi species beetle and moth attractants to monitor for the presence of food infesting insects.

Heavy infestations of flour by confused flour beetles may cause the product to turn greyish or mold prematurely. This insect can also give a citronella-like smell and taste from its scent glands to the material infested.

Red-Legged Ham Beetle kits feature Insect Limited’s signature pheromone lures that use a pheromone mixed into a food attractant to draw in Red-Legged Ham Beetle, Necrobia rufipes over a 3-month period.

Signs of Red-Legged Ham Beetle infestation are white silken cocoons on infested food items, cracks/crevices, and fibrous or furry textiles such as meaty dog treats, tennis balls, and wooden furniture. Red-legged ham beetles eat many meat based products, similar in moisture to beef jerky. Click to view..
