Food mites at home?

The food mite is a small butterfly of about 2 cm. You will find it when you see it fly from the opening of a package of flour, semolina or dried vegetables. The female food mite come to lay directly in the packets. The caterpillars of the food machine produce silky threads that make the foodstuffs unfit for consumption. You will then have to dispose of contaminated food at this point. You can protect yourself by repacking your food in hermetic boxes, jars or vacuum bags. Once the invasion is declared, insecticide treatment is recommended. We offer several natural products to combat food mite: liquid pyrethre-based insecticide, aerosol, sachet, trap, smoke. All means are good to eradicate this insect that can really infester our food reserves.

 

Why natural insecticides?

Ending up with food mites is one thing, but if you could also preserve your health and your environment, wouldn\'t it be better? Did you know that some conventional insecticide particles remained for several months in your processed parts? Fumigen is the worst because the particles fall on all objects, textiles, parts of the room. Unless you carefully wash each item, you will find yourself inevitably with chemical substances. Opting for natural insecticides will allow both to get rid of food mites but also, by the composition of our products and their low remanence, to continue living in a healthy environment.

Principle of operation of this trap

Pièges anti-mite alimentaire Aries

The operation of this trap without insecticide is very simple: it uses the very fine sense of smell of insects to attract them to a sticky surface. The pheromone (hormone secreted by the female) incorporated into the glue attracts the male moths which remain stuck on the leaf. Without the male, reproduction is stopped. This method offers a considerable advantage in greatly slowing down the proliferation of food moths.

This principle is widely used in organic farming for the protection of orchards against butterflies which cause worms in fruit.

The pheromone spreads through the atmosphere and inevitably attracts male moths looking to mate. They are thus no longer available for reproduction and this greatly slows down the proliferation of moths.

Advantages of this food moth trap

+ Actively fights food moth
+ Odorless
+ Natural, ecological (without insecticide)
+ 12 weeks of action
+ Food safe, non-toxic
+ It can be placed anywhere in the house

Usage tips

Remove the 3 sticky strips from the cardboard backing. Take a strip and remove the protective film, then put it back in the cardboard support: the sticky surface must be on the cardboard side with the holes. Then place the support near the infestation area: the duration of action of the trap is about 12 weeks. Put the other 2 strips in the fridge. Store the other 2 traps provided in the refrigerator. Once the trap is full, replace the sticky strip. When the 3 strips are used up, you can only take back the refills, either in batches of 3 or 5 traps : see here.

Our bonus tips against food moths

- Equip your windows and possibly your doors with mosquito nets to prevent an invasion from the outside.

- Regularly check your cereals and dried fruits. Put foods likely to be infested in airtight jars and place them in the refrigerator. Switching to cold will eradicate food moths as they cannot tolerate low temperatures.

- Immediately discard any food containing traces of cocoons or insects.

- Check gaps, cracks, back sides of cupboards, false ceilings and false floors, etc.
