Meal Moths
Defending Your Home Against Indian Meal Moths
Understanding the Indian Meal Moth Lifecycle
Indian Meal Moths can pose a threat to the tranquility of your home. Their life cycle is characterized by complete metamorphosis, progressing through the stages of egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa, and adult. The adult Indian Meal Moth is a small moth, measuring about 3/8 inches in length with a wingspan of approximately 5/8 inches. Distinguished by a gray overall wing color, the rear half exhibits a distinctive rusty brown or nearly bronze hue, setting them apart from other household moths.
Spotting the Larvae
During the larval stage, Indian Meal Moths are typically cream-colored, occasionally displaying yellowish-green or pinkish shades, with a dark brown head. As they seek a suitable place to pupate, larvae may be visible wandering, and the pupal stage may occur in noticeable locations, often observed on walls and where the wall meets the ceiling.
