Indian Meal Moths are known as “Stored Product Pests” or “Pantry Pests” because they infest a wide range of dry foods, such as cereal, bread, pasta, rice, crackers, seeds, dried fruit, nuts, grains and pet food. The food they are infesting will almost look like it’s webbed together.
If you find larvae or moths in your home, it’s important to throw out all food sources that have not been kept in tightly sealed containers. Indian meal moths can get through surprisingly tight spots, and can chew through sealed bags.
