Moth traps are devices designed to capture and monitor moth populations, particularly those that can damage clothing or crops. They often use a combination of pheromones, which are scents that attract moths, and sticky surfaces to ensnare them. These traps help in identifying infestations and can be used in homes or agricultural settings.
There are various types of moth traps, including pheromone traps and light traps. Pheromone traps are effective for specific moth species, while light traps attract a broader range of moths. Using these traps can aid in pest control and help maintain a healthy environment.
