I'm not aware of specific pheromones for this species - the product in your 
link doesn't appear to name target species so I suspect it's for the Tinea and 
Tineolla spp. The 'sticky' traps should show if and where there is an 
infestation. One moth on a trap is usually nothing to be too concerned about, 
but wise to be aware and continue monitoring with your traps. If this species 
does prove to become a problem there are proprietary powders and residue 
insecticides that can be used to control them. 

All the best,

Thank you! Do you know of a better way to monitor for these moths than standard 
floor-level blunder traps? I was unable to find any pheromones for this type of 
moth. Do you think something like this would work?:

Hi Megan,

This individual is a bit worn and rubbed, but yes I'd say it's an example off 
the Brown House moth, Hofmannophila pseudospretella. This species is frequently 
found at a background level in domestic and other buildings where it is usually 
not too numerous or damaging. It is a species to be aware of though and 
monitoring should tell you if control is necessary.

Hello everyone,

I caught this moth in a blunder trap behind our museum reference 
center, which is on the third floor of our museum. I am concerned that this 
might be a Brown House moth, but I can't be sure. Can anyone help me identify 
this moth? It is approximately half an inch long.

Hi Jerry,

As others have said it's one of the Carpet beetle species. From what I can make 
out from the image I think we are looking at the Asian Carpet beetle, Anthrenus 
coloratus. It is pretty similar in its habits and biology to the Varied carpet 
beetle, Anthrenus verbasci, so, the same precautions and treatments should be 
applied if warranted. It's certainly a species that you should be aware of, 
monitoring for and controlling if necessary.

All the best,

Hello,

It’s a little hard to tell, but looks like a Varied Carpet 
Beetle to me too.
