So at my old apartment, the infestation was bad. Like you’d walk into a room and see a dozen on the ceiling and several more on the walls. Was like this for months, despite multiple traps that would collect 50+ (estimating). When I moved, they mostly didn’t come with me. I saw maybe a total of 5 or 6 my first month living here (June 2020), and haven’t seen a single one since then. Until yesterday. I saw one. Killed it immediately. But what does this mean? Are they back? How and why was there such a long period without them?
Edit to add: I just remembered that the 5 or 6 I mentioned were ones I killed on the walls/ceiling. I had a trap set up as soon as I got here and I think it caught like 6 or 7. So total there were like a dozen moths here in June, but I haven’t seen any since then.
