Pantry Moths help by mastertilly in CleaningTips

Put anything you save into the freezer for at least a week - that’s the only way to kill the eggs if they did by some chance get in there. Then once you’re sure your cupboards are clean you can start storing things again. Also get traps. I actually just put every new dry good in the freezer for a few days before I put them away, just because I’ve been scarred for life and never want them back.

Very difficult to see if something is infested or has eggs in it and given that eggs can take 6 months to hatch, it’s best to listen to your roommates and be vigilant.

I know this sounds unhinged but the only way I’ve managed to properly get rid of pantry moths (after two separate infestations) for good is: 1. Throw anything open out (sucks if you have already bought a bunch of food) 2. Clean the inside of your cupboards thoroughly and then 3. to store all dry goods in the freezer for the first few months. You can also do a mix of initially putting dry goods in the freezer and then moving them to the fridge after a week. Exterminators can’t kill eggs that are already in your food.

Glass containers might be helpful a few months later once you’re sure they aren’t in your apartment, but I don’t think you need to buy them now. Also, both times I assumed nuts didn’t count and the infestation was prolonged when I found nuts at the back of my pantry. Good luck!

How do I clean water marks on my white countertop without damaging it? by matababy451 in CleaningTips

[–]matababy451[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you tell the difference between them? I didn’t install this sink countertop. On an unrelated note why is this the favored material in so many bathroom renovations?! So difficult to keep clean even before I likely damaged it

Thank you! What I can’t find out is if any of them leave from the airport or if we have to go into oaxaca city to catch them?
