Clothes Moth Traps only catch active male moths, not females or juveniles, so some customers wonder why they still see some moths flying / not trapped - this takes time for the breeding cycle to stop (4-6 weeks). It enables you to monitor the severity of the moth problem around your home as you can count the number of adult male moths that are caught over a period of time.
