Moths in my house how to get rid of them ?

Question

okay so the last couple of days there's been a few moths around my house (of course i killed them ) but they keep coming back and today there was a huge one flying around my house (sarced the h**l out of me lol) so does anybody know whats happening and how to pervent it ?

Answer 1

Maybe there just coming in at night when people go in or out? i guess you could use mothballs. But they stink and they are toxic to animals and children.    When a moth or other night time bug gets in our house in the summer, we turn out all the lights in the house except one, like in the bathroom, then it will fly to the light and you can close that door which makes it easier to kill.      I guess moths can live in your closet or something too, on clothes? thats what mothballs were origionally ment for. ive never actually seen this, but some people keep pieces of cedar in there closet to keep them away. you can sometimes fine tiny piece of cedar or cedar shavings in the laundry area of walmart or kmart or something.

Answer 2

They are attracted to light and are more abundant in summer months.  Without moth balls or chemicals, I'd say your best alternative would be a Bug Zapper. :)

Answer 3

Are you storing fire place logs in your home? If so, put them outside for the summer. I had a similar problem with moths and I couldn't figure out where they were coming from until a friend of mine told me.

Answer 4

something with camphor oil in it...

maybe they like ur decor!
