Yes, these articles do mention hemp as a food source - but tarred hemp? I'm
not so sure.

Hi Mike,
I found a few places that mention hemp, particularly as a snack for the
casemaking moths (Tinea pellionella).
This info sheet from Museum Pests.net lists hemp under food sources:
This document from the LA County Department of Public Health, also lists hemp
as a food source.
And this page from PennState Extension.
I hope these help! I am not sure how to research this particular topic more
extensively.
Thanks!

Hi Chelsee,
Casemaking moths are generally attracted to animal fiber, wool, feathers,
things like that. Could you share what you found regarding their attraction to
hemp? That may be species specific and I’m just genuinely curious. Thank you so
much!
Best,
Mike

Hi Chelsee,
my assessment is, as a plant material, hemp is not attractive to clothes moths.
Especially if the hemp is also coated with tar.
On the subject of tar, I would also pay attention to the risk to the
environment or people.
Champhor is famous as repellent for many insects.
Best, Stephan

Betreff: [PestList] Tarred Hemp
Hi all,
I was curious if anyone could provide any insight on this. We have been dealing
with clothing moths (and a few casemaking moths) inside our museum. We have an
exhibit coming up that will feature a wood piece that has hemp handles, which I
know can be attractive to the casemaking moths in particular. However, the
handles have been treated with tar. Does anyone know if this might be a
deterrent to the moths? The creator also specified that the work is made of
camphor, which he says that bugs despise. (I don’t know about this, but thought
I would throw it out there)
I appreciate any help that anyone can provide!
Thank you.
