How do I stop pantry moths coming back after cleaning?

Our answer

Discard infested dry goods, vacuum shelf cracks, store replacements in hard airtight containers and monitor with pantry-moth pheromone traps.

Why this approach makes sense

The useful decision is usually the storage temperature, container or time since preparation, not a special gadget.

Before you try it

If food shows signs of spoilage or has not been kept at a safe temperature, do not try to rescue it with extra seasoning or heating.
