In partnership with
Hey there,
Picture this: it’s late, the tree is on, you’re in pajamas “just finishing up” one more batch of cookies.
You pull out the flour. The sugar. The cinnamon.
Holiday mood: activated.
But here’s the fun twist: You’re not the only one who loves your baking supplies.
There’s a tiny, quiet crowd that thinks your pantry is an all-inclusive resort:
pantry moths.
Not horror-level gross. Not dangerous.
Just… unexpectedly interesting.
The tiny food critics in your cabinets
Pantry moths (often Indianmeal moths) are those little floaty moths you sometimes see doing lazy circles around the kitchen light.
A few cool things about them:
They usually arrive with your groceries—especially flour, grains, nuts, and pet or bird food. You didn’t “attract” them. You chauffeured them.
They love quiet corners. The back of the cabinet, half-closed bags, the “I’ll use that someday” mix. If you’ve forgotten it, they haven’t.
They’re great at finding each other. Females release pheromones; males pick up the signal and follow. It’s a tiny dating app, but for carbs.
They’re not a judgment on your cleaning skills.
They’re more like a little flag saying, “Hey, this corner hasn’t seen daylight in a while.”

Read all warnings before using GLP-ls. Side-effects may include a risk of thyroid c-cell tumors. Do not use GLP-1s if you or your family have a history of thyroid cancer. In certain situations, where clinically appropriate, a provider may prescribe compounded medication, which is prepared by a state-licensed sterile compounding pharmacy partner. Although compounded drugs are permitted to be prescribed under federal law, they are not FDA-approved and do not undergo FDA review for safety, effectiveness, or manufacturing quality.
Bug wisdom
Here’s what pantry moths are really teaching:
✨ If it feels off, it probably is.
✨ Boundaries (and lids) protect your energy and your food.
✨ Not everything needs fixing. Some things just need tossing.
They’re a reminder that what we ignore doesn’t disappear; it just goes… backstage.
So this December, before you add more—more plans, more goals, more supplements—
ask yourself: What’s one thing I could clear out instead?
