- Indian Meal Moth
Color: Adult: The front wings are tan on the front third and reddish-brown with a coppery luster on the back two-thirds. Larvae: Dirty white color with a sometimes greenish or pinkish tint.
Size: Adult: 3/4–inch. Mature Larvae: ½-inch long
The problem was in the kitchen cupboard above the oven or in pantry where we store plastic bags of bulk products.
Adult Indian meal moths live less than 2 weeks, are non feeding and chiefly fly at dusk in the early evening. During the day they prefer to rest in poorly lighted areas. If disturbed, they fly in an irregular zigzag pattern. These moths fly mostly at night and are attracted to lights and may appear in the living room near or in front of television sets. Occasionally, the larvae or "white worms with black heads" crawl up walls and suspend from the ceiling attached to a single silken thread. Other times, a few larvae may be found in a food package along with unsightly webbing, cast skins and frass (fecal pellets).
Damage is caused by the larvae spinning silken threads as they feed and crawl, thus webbing food particles together. Besides infesting all cereal food products and whole grains, larvae also feed on a wide variety of foods and feeds such as dried fruits, powdered milk, cornmeal, flour, raisins, prunes, nuts, chocolate, candies, health food and seeds, bird seed, dog and cat food, fish food, graham crackers, dried red peppers, pastas, etc.
The larvae are what do the damage-feeding on these different food items, forming an extensive web type of substance over the food items that they infest.
Indian Meal Moth Prevention Tips
- Before purchasing, examine foods such as milled cereal products, flour and dried fruit for infestations. Examine broken and damaged packages and boxes to avoid bringing stored pests accidentally into the home. Check the packaging date to ensure freshness.
- Purchase seldom-used foods in small quantities to prevent long storage periods of a month or more. Susceptible material stored for six months or more, especially during the hot summer months, has the possibility of developing into serious infestations. Store susceptible foods in insect-proof containers of glass, metal or plastic ware with tight-fitting lids, ideally screw-type. Highly susceptible foods, such as spices, can be kept in the refrigerator and other foods in the freezer. Always use older packages first, and inspect frequently to avoid any spillage which might attract insects.
- Careful sanitation is the best method to avoid stored product pests. After removing all food, food packages, utensils, dishes, etc. from the cupboard, shelves or storage area, use a strong suction vacuum cleaner with proper attachments to clean up all spilled foods (toaster crumbs, cornmeal, bits of pet food, raisins, etc.) from cracks and crevices, behind and under appliances and furniture. Pull out heavy appliances from the wall and scrub with soap and hot water. The ability of these insects to find a small amount of food and survive is amazing. After shelves are thoroughly dry, cover with clean, fresh paper or foil before replacing with food or cooking utensils. Remove and destroy any cocoons found in cupboards and other sites.
- Locate the source of infestation and quickly get rid of it. Dispose of heavily infested foods in wrapped strong plastic bags or in sealed containers for garbage disposal service or bury deep in the soil if permitted and practical.
