When it comes to pest control in a food business, the first rule is 'do no harm'. The Green Protect trap nails this.

- Pro: A brilliant, non-toxic way to monitor for a very specific pest problem.
- Limitation: It's a monitoring tool, not a solution for a full-blown infestation.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Loaf, a popular artisan bakery in Norwich, needed a food-safe way to monitor their flour storeroom after a supplier reported moth issues in the region. They wanted a solution that wouldn't contaminate their organic ingredients.
"We can't risk chemicals near our flour. These traps are brilliant; we placed a few around the storeroom and within a week, we’d identified a problem coming from a batch of recently delivered walnuts. It let us act fast before it spread."
David Chen – Owner & Head Baker
The early detection prevented a potential infestation, saving an estimated £400 in stock that would have otherwise been contaminated.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Remove the trap from its protective packaging.
- Peel off the protective paper from the sticky inner surface.
- Fold the trap into the triangular shape as instructed on the packaging.
- Place it on a shelf or stick it to a wall inside a cupboard, pantry, or near dry goods.
Keeping It Going
- Check the trap weekly to monitor the number of moths caught.
- A high catch rate may indicate a nearby infestation that needs locating.
- Replace the trap after 2 months of use, or sooner if it becomes full of moths or dust.
- Always wash your hands after handling used traps.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these flour moth traps poisonous or do they contain insecticides?
A: Absolutely not. They are 100% insecticide-free and work using a natural pheromone lure, making them completely safe for use in kitchens and food storage areas.
Q: How exactly do they work?
A: A pheromone attractant embedded in the sticky surface lures male flour and pantry moths into the trap, where they get stuck. This helps monitor activity and disrupt the breeding cycle.
Q: How long does one trap last?
A: Each trap remains effective for up to two months once it has been opened and activated.
Q: What's the best place to put them?
A: Place them inside cupboards, pantries, or on shelves near where you store dry goods like flour, pasta, cereal, and nuts. Avoid placing them in areas with strong air currents.
Q: Will they attract clothes moths too?
A: No, the pheromone is specific to food moths (Plodia and Ephestia species). They will not be effective against clothes moths.
Q: How many traps should I use for my kitchen?
A: A good rule of thumb is one trap per standard cupboard or small pantry. For larger storerooms, you may want to use two or three to ensure good coverage.
Q: I've caught a lot of moths. What does that mean?
A: A high number of moths indicates a likely infestation. You should inspect all nearby dry goods, discard any contaminated items, and clean the area thoroughly.
Q: Can I put the trap directly inside a bag of flour?
A: No, do not place it in direct contact with food. Position it on the shelf or wall nearby for the best and safest results.

Ever wondered how these little cardboard triangles can be so effective? It’s all down to some very clever science that mimics nature. The trap contains a specific pheromone, which is like a powerful, irresistible perfume that only male flour moths can detect. They think they’re flying towards a female moth ready to mate.
Instead, they fly straight into the sticky trap. By taking the males out of the equation, you drastically interrupt the breeding cycle. Think of it less like a weapon and more like a cunning diversion tactic. It’s not a poison and it's completely harmless to anything else in your kitchen, making it the safest and smartest way to manage pests in a food-handling environment.
