will the product kill clothes moths?

Absolutely yes. It's has a wonderful smell to us and moths and bugs just hate it. However, I would caution that if you are spraying delicates or anything that is questionable, ask the manufacture. This is great stuff and it should be safe. I hope this helps :)

Yes - I does. Seems to be effective with all insects that come into contact with it & has a great smell.

These traps continue to work for several weeks. It is important to take other precautions to stop the life cycle of the moths. Some things that I do are keep seeds and grain products in freezer to kill any eggs already present in the grains. This will happen overnight. Keep products in tightly closed containers. Vacuum all visual presence of moth larvae visible in crevices along ceilings, etc. Hope this helps.

I can't say for sure, but its killed or kept away everything else. I suppose it would kill any insect. For the price and as much as you'll get, it's worth a shot. Hope that helps.

I think it does. Ever since I've layered my cashmere sweaters with Moth Away, I haven't had any small moth eaten holes. It worked for me.

Probably not, the purpose is to repel and prevent moths, who make caterpillars/ larvae from setting up camp in your woolens, so you would essentially be shutting the barn door after the horse got out. You will probably have to fumigate your closets to combat healthy thriving moth populations. Have your garments treated professionally, and keep all your woolens in moth proof garment bags.

My experience has been that these will decrease the amount of moths that you get significantly, to the point of being gone. To truly eliminate them, you would want to have these pantry pests, put you things that could get moths into sealed containers and bags to control and contain any outbreak, throw out anything that you know already has worms and then clean the environment that you've found worms. When I did all of the above, I was able to almost completely eliminate the moths. I haven't seen a moth in about a year, but keeping these traps in my pantry has kept it if any moths come out, then they go into the trap, and less eggs can be layed by the moths to then increase any outbreak. Hope this helps.

Moths are attracted to the UV light. I have my Flowtron mounted inside a milking parlor so I don't get many moths. If you mount it outside you will probably see more moths killed.

Not at all, I used the product for about 2 moths, every day twice, but I didn't see a positive change.

It wont even work for types of Moths that are NOT listed on the package.Because the Pheromone bait is specifically attractive to those listed.

i suggest going to riteaid and getting stronger cedar scented mothball hangars. they are much more effective, especially for a severe infestation. you may need to use a defogger as an initial treatment. didnt your dry cleaner suggest a method to rid yourself of these pests? he should have. i hope this helps. the cedar green products are more of a maintenance product than a treatment solution in my experience.

The Safer trap seems to have worked. I caught several moths using the trap. but. I finally found the source of most of the moths, the headquarters so to speak. They were in an expensive handmade oriental rug in my dining room. I did not vacuum under the legs of a sofa, and they were nesting in the spots under the furniture where I didnot vacuum. In the future , I will move the furniture in order to vacuum. I had to moth proof the rug after it was professionally cleaned. I also bought a special spray that is supposed to kill the moths . The spray is made from chrysanthemum leaves. It is supposed to be non toxic to pets and people. We shall see. The Safer trap seems to have worked. I caught several moths using the trap. but.

I use it to spray my dust cloths ...wonderful smell and acts as a repellent. I don't know about using it to spray directly on moths. I do spray my cabinets and drawers with the oil, that also repels moths and silverfish. As do moth balls.

YES!! I tried every product you can imagine. NOTHING WORKED! However, I finally invested in a deep freezer and I PUT ALL MY CLOTHES IN THE FREEZER 15-20 PIECES OF CLOTHING AT A TIME FOR 24 HRS. I KEEP ADDING CLOTHES UNTIL THEY HAVE ALL BEEN IN THE FREEZER FOR 24 HRS. THIS SEEMED TO HAVE WORKED. If there is a moth hiding in the dark, which they do, you'll see them laying eggs or larvae on your clothes. I CONSISTENTLY PUT MY CLOTHES IN THE FREEZER AND THEY ARE SUBSIDING LITTLE BY LITTLE. IT'S THE ONLY THING THAT HAS WORKED FOR ME. THIS "SAFER CLOTHES MOTH" DOES NOT WORK...I NEVER CAUGHT A THING WITH IT!!!

Well I never saw moths in my case, only holey sweaters. I don't have holey sweaters any more. Plus it's a proven fact that cedar repels moths. Here, have some Martha Stewart musings on the subject...http://www.marthastewart.com/264609/the-basics-of-mothproofing

No, unless you cut it into small pieces. It is strong smelling. I use it mainly in closets for moths.

I don't know if that would work or not. I was required to buy this product to spray on all the window curtains at my childcare center. Somewhat silly since the state regs don't require it on other fabrics such as sofas, dress up clothing, etc. Sometimes you can find this product at a large fabric chain where you could read the full label. I am guessing that the heat from the stove would eventually overcome the products ability to prevent a fire.

I have one in a book case and it catches moths. These are not as effective as another brand I've used but they are pretty good.
