Clothes Closets
Where clothes moths do the most damage
Hang or set pouches near wool, cashmere, and silk. Focus on the back of the closet and the undisturbed corners where clothes moths prefer to lay eggs.
Recommended: 1–2 pouches per closet
THE SCIENCE
Proven by Science : Maximum Moth Protection
Backed by over 15 years of research, Fresh Cab® Moths uses a proprietary blend of plant-based ingredients to reliably get rid of moths in closets, food pantries, storage areas, and other indoor spaces.
Cedarwood Oil
Proven to naturally deter moths by disrupting larvae development and helping prevent infestations before they start.
Almond + Sunflower Oil Blend
Enhances the diffusion of the active oils, ensuring consistent coverage and long-lasting prevention.
Geranium Oil & Geraniol
Proven to repel moths effectively — without synthetic mothballs or harsh chemicals.
Corn Cob (100% U.S. Farm-Grown)
A stable base for slow-release diffusion, delivering continuous protection for up to 30 days per pouch.
HOW TO USE
Simply Place & Protect
No setup, no mixing, no mess. Fresh Cab® starts deterring moths the moment you open the pouch. The scent is pleasant to people but one moths avoid — it disrupts how they find food and where they lay eggs, while cedarwood helps interrupt larvae development.
1
Place in Problem Areas
Remove the pouch from its overwrap and place it in closets, wardrobes, dressers and drawers, pantries, kitchen cabinets, and storage bins — anywhere moths settle.
2
Better Coverage = Better Results
Use one pouch for small, enclosed spaces; add more in larger closets or pantries, or spots with visible moth activity, until you get the results you want.
3
Replace Every 30 Days
For continuous protection, replace pouches once a month — or when the herbal scent begins to fade. In sealed spaces like storage bins, pouches may last longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know - from ingredients and safety to how many pouches you need.
It's formulated to deter both pantry moths and clothes moths — the two most common household moths — so one pouch protects dry goods in the kitchen and fabrics in the closet. For other pests, EarthKind makes targeted plant-based deterrents for rodents, ants and cockroaches, spiders, and mosquitoes as well.
Yes — same plant-based formula, new name. It's now part of the Fresh Cab® family so all of our botanical deterrents are easy to find in one place. The cedarwood and geranium oil blend, the corn cob pouch, and the up-to-30-day duration are unchanged.
Mothballs can be inconsistent and contain harsh chemicals like naphthalene, which can be toxic to people and pets — especially in homes with children or animals. Fresh Cab® Moths is a plant-based, no-kill alternative that uses a scent moths avoid, and it's safe to use around kids and pets when used as directed.
Up to 30 days in most environments. In sealed spaces like a storage bin or drawer the scent can last longer; in larger or well-ventilated rooms you may want to refresh sooner. Replace whenever the herbal scent noticeably diminishes.
Anywhere you've seen moth activity — or want to prevent it: clothes and linen closets, dressers and drawers, kitchen pantries and cabinets, pet food storage, and seasonal storage bins. Use one pouch for a small enclosed space and add more for larger closets or pantries.
Yes — Fresh Cab® Moth Deterrent is made from plant-based ingredients and is safe to use in homes with kids and pets when used as directed. Placing pouches in a Pouch Pod adds extra protection from curious children and animals who might try to chew on them.
Moths lay eggs in hidden spots, and new outbreaks appear when the larvae hatch. For pantry moths: throw out infested dry goods, clean nearby shelves and crevices, then place pouches to keep moths from returning. For clothes moths: wash or dry-clean affected clothing, vacuum the storage area, then place pouches to protect fabrics. Cleaning alone often lets moths return — pairing it with a deterrent is what keeps them away.
