NOPE! Clothes Moth Traps – 6 Pack – Fragrance-free Sticky Clothing Moth Traps – Child-Safe & Pet-Safe
NOPE! Clothes Moth Monitoring Traps use natural pheromone technology to draw out and capture male clothing moths from their hiding places – breaking the moth lifecycle in your home. They come in packs of two for use around the home to monitor moth infestations and stop moths breeding in the home. Pheromone moth traps are an attractant form of monitoring moth control and a modern advancement on the traditional moth ball. Attractants use bait to lure insects in. Once inside, they become stuck on the adhesive floor of the trap. The wide surface area of the trap helps you to monitor how many moths you catch, giving you an idea of how many females and larvae might still be hiding somewhere in your home. Place on tables, floors, bedside tables and inside drawers. Hang from cupboards, wardrobes, staircase bannister rails, bed frames, drying racks and more with the included circular hanger. NOPE! Clothes Moth Monitoring Traps are specially formulated to attract the Common Clothes Moth, also known as Tineola Bisselliella. They may also help to lure in Case-Bearing Moths (Tinea Pellionella, also called the Common Carpet Moth) and Pale-Backed Clothes Moths (Monopis Crocicapitella) However, as the pheromone included in NOPE! Clothes Moth Monitoring Traps is from the Common UK Clothes Moth, efficacy may vary. NOPE! Clothes Moth Monitoring Traps are intended to be used with NOPE! CP Moth Killer Spray as part of a wider pest control strategy. In areas of suspected infestation, always ensure that all clothes, furnishings and other fabric articles (like plush toys) are removed, thoroughly vacuumed and washed at higher temperatures. Visually monitor areas of known infestation for signs of moth activity: frayed or holed fabrics, moth eggs, casings or bodies. NOPE! Clothes Moth Monitoring Traps also feature a pleasant green pattern, ensuring they will not ruin the ambience of your home.

These traps are a little hit and miss – I have 3 set up in my house currently, they’ve been out for about 3 weeks and 2 of them have only caught about 3 moths each. For reference, my cat’s water fountain has caught more in the same time frame. However, one of the taps has caught about 15 months, which is actually pretty good. So I do think they work – the discrepancy might just be due to where I have placed the traps, perhaps there’s an air current disrupting the pheromones but it’s hard to say. I’ve had similar results with other brands of moth traps though
I’ve had the moth traps out for around a month now and there has been a definite reduction in moth numbers. The traps are filling up so I can only say they work
I like that the NOPE! Clothes Moth Traps have no scent and within minutes of assembling them
many moths have moved into them, Within a couple of days , scores of minute moths that seem to come in from the garden are stuck to the sticky interiors. I hook the assembled traps over door handles, or lay them on smooth surfaces. SUCCESS! They flood the place every Spring!

Okay so I set these up a couple of weeks ago, and recently noticed a couple of moths flying around (on separate occasions). I picked up one of the traps and waved it around to catch one, but the moth wouldn’t stick. This is when I realised my great mistake… I didn’t take the stickers off! I don’t think this is an easy mistake, they are quite obvious, I must have been especially tired or something.
So, first thing you need to do is remember to peel the sticker! Or just follow the simple instructions 🙂
Even after realising my mistake and peeling off the stickers, I don’t find these massively sticky. I did catch the moth, and he managed to walk across it before flying away – the first time. The second time I squashed it to make sure.
I’ve now had them up correctly and not caught any moths, however I cant say I’ve seen any more either. Time will tell how well they work, but the concept is good and they seem very well made. Much nicer than similar ones I’ve used in the past. Will update once I get results, and also if I don’t. Recommended.
We have a yearly battle with moths – consuming our carpets and best jumpers – so any way of controlling them is worth looking at.
These traps are a relatively simple idea – a cardboard strip, with a peel-away paper revealing a sticky surface which is simply folded and hung up where there are likely to be infestations.
The sticky surface contains pheromones which attract MALE moths who then get stuck and thus the breeding cycle is broken. They are supposed to last 3 months.
I was pleased to see that the trap is non-toxic and it appeared to have no smell.
It is currently pretty cold and we don’t have any moths about, but I am eager to see how this works out. My issue is that it is the growing caterpillars from the eggs laid by the FEMALE moths that are the ones causing the damage – so the question is whether the traps can catch enough males to be effective enough to stop the females from breeding and egg laying. I will be watching carefully – and hoping this is the answer to our moth problems.
