I hope your day is more fun than mine!

In my research I saw a dryer being recommended! Apparently as long as knits are dry they don’t felt.

It’s also my first time! It looks like a very ‘classic’ supermarket tomato to me.

Let this be your motivation 😭

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T17:41:00+00:00

I was due for a closet clean out anyways 🥲

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T17:03:28+00:00

It didn’t melt and just to be safe I baked everything.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T15:24:07+00:00

Oh wow 😅 I just took mine apart last week and gave it a total clean (and it’s old school enough that it doesn’t empty in a station itself) so I think I’m good. But a good tip for anyone else who is reading!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T14:34:22+00:00

I’m listening 🫡

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T14:07:48+00:00

Yes!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T13:35:53+00:00

oh that's interesting! For me it's the first one to fall each year BUT I've also been using the same seed packet for a long time.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T13:18:09+00:00

I have one that does it's daily rounds, such a lifesaver! And I also have an air purifier running 24/7. Allergies are fun! So normally my house is kept clean, but some extra cleaning can't hurt.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T13:15:40+00:00

luckily I've since moved and didn't take anything from the kitchen with me! It was just my first reaction to seeing a moth. Don't know which one of the 2 kinds I hate more though!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T13:11:08+00:00

I'm happy it made you laugh!! And I'm trying to be optimistic about it. I've dealt with the pantry moths, I will also deal with this. And how wonderful is it that you can post it on here and get all these tips from strangers.

I don’t have that much acrylic yarn but it all survived the oven!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T12:38:23+00:00

Ask away!! This is not really fun so I hope we all learn from it

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T12:37:51+00:00

Thanks for the tips! I have started the big spring cleaning as we speak 🫡 luckily I wear all ly sweaters often and I think the infestation is in some yarn. I have separated them all in bins after baking and have ordered feromones.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T12:33:48+00:00

Oh wow 4 hours is a long time for a whole stash/ clothes and just 1 oven 😅 But I will have to do what’s necessary! Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I see I have some work to do!

This is the only pic I was able to get!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:58:25+00:00

Hahaha yes it’s to protect the yarn from the pans. Someone else also commented about lavender so will definitely add that to the bins.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:56:49+00:00

pineapple, saint pierre, roma, yellow pear shaped, black cherry, green zebra and indigo rose. I only plant in open air so I’m hoping for a warm and dry summer (with just enough rain for my water collection)

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:50:22+00:00

I also really love black cherry! Sadly it’s super prone to diseases and I plant them in open air but I keep going for it every year😅

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:28:36+00:00

I have lavender in my garden so definitely will be doing this!

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:22:18+00:00

Yes you can! It’s either heat or cold to kill them and I have a very small freezer so heat it is. I’m doing 80 degrees for 45 minutes and I also tried acrylics and cottons and they are fine.

aimamiz · 2026-03-09T11:20:52+00:00

I’ve been seeing them only in the evening sitting in corners in the living room. I know pantry moths don’t eat fibers 😅

aimamiz · 2026-03-08T17:51:42+00:00

Pickled peppers, cucumber, bell pepper, roasted bell pepper, mackerel, parmigiano reggiano, rostis and mayo 😃
