The traps I have do not appear to catch any worms, and i would think that the worms are not of sexual maturity, and thus not affected by the pheromone bait. Sorry

Hi, Joan, No they will not help with the worms. The trap consists of sticky coated surfaces and a pheromone lure that attracts the adult moths only. The moths fly into the trap after the lure and get trapped on the sticky surface. Unless you throw out the foodstuff that's infested with the larvae (worms), they will eventually develop into moths which will get caught in the trap. It's best to track down the infested food and throw it away and use the traps for residual moths. Good luck!

Joan, the worms may be near their food source. Try to find the infested food and throw it away. So far I have found them in my bulk rice, pinto beans and bags of snack foods.

I'm know nothing about worms, but I found this article for you. http://www.redwormcomposting.com/worms/do-euros-and-red-worms-get-along/Without reading it, basically they'll live together fine since they are in the same species of worm. Only con with mixing is if you're a worm farmer wanting to sell one select specie. Reds better at composting, night crawlers at aerating soil.

I think it just repels moths as well as other insects. I use cedar chips in my dog bed to discourage fleas there.

yes they are supposed to help repel silverfish and moths i believe...but this brand wasn't great. when i received them they hardly had any smell at all :/

I can't say for sure but I would think that the pheromone that the trap uses would not work for non listed moths.

I already had moths and the ones I caught were the same type I had been seeing. I didn't see an increase in population with the traps.

It will kill any bug that is attracted to the light, so yes it kills moths too if they fly into it. Mostly mosquitoes are attracted to it though.

I never had a problem with pincher bugs so I really cant say - sorry..... My trouble was with moths laying larvae on the leaves... My guess would be that the garlic may actually attract them since they are attracted to the smell of food..... Good luck!!

Yes it will kill moths! And it does it completely. If you want to save moths, try setting a trap with a light and sort the moths out and the n kill the rest.

I am not sure what kind of moth I have either. So, I bought 5 different kind of moth traps. This one work. So, I buy more only this.

I think there are more than enough to start your Worm Factory. I have the same system, and when I placed these worms in the top bin ( I had almost completed compost in the second and third bins )about half of them migrated down to the second bin. Good luck with them.

Unfortunately, the cedar repels adult moths. Larvae are the sweater eaters, and they require further measures. I still recommend the cedar hangers, but they aren't the whole amswer where there is infestation. we may both need a specialist.

I have red worms growing in mine without any issues, but I'm not sure. Might be worth asking the manufacturer? Walmart sells it too but I never found any locally which is why I ordered it from Amazon.

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.

You can use one worm at a time. Make sure you use rubber gloves when handling.

I didn't have any luck with the works i bought from a bait shop. Its my understanding that they are usually night crawlers which aren't the ideal composting worms.

Yes, I believe it will help. Insects with an exoskeleton are impacted by this product.
