Indian meal moth (larva/pupa stage)

Pantry areas, kitchens, food processing plants, and grain storage facilities.

Stored food products including grains, cereal, flour, nuts, dried fruit, chocolate, and pet food.

Larvae spin silk webbing through food as they feed; they often crawl away from food sources to walls or ceilings to pupate in silk cocoons.

Major pantry pest causing significant food spoilage through fecal contamination and webbing; no direct health risk to humans but often requires disposal of infested goods.
