♪ foodstuffs (also known as food moths or pyrales) are tiny lepidopteran butterflies found under several subspecies based on their predilection food.

The most common mites in our regions are affected by dry food species: cereals, nuts, almonds, hazelnuts, dried fruits, pasta, semoules, chocolate products, tea, spices, animal food, ...

At the time of reproduction, females secrete a odorous substance (called pheromone) that attracts males. This is precisely the principle used by the trap Kapo. Thanks to an integrated synthetic pheromone at the level of the neckline, the trap attracts males who remain prisoners of the neckline and can no longer fertilize females. The risk of a new infestation is then severely reduced.
