cacao moth
The cacao moth, also known as Ephestia elutella or the tobacco moth, is a species of small moths that belong to the family Pyralidae. This moth, native to Europe, is now found worldwide in places where stored products exist. It is considered a pest as the larvae feed on commodities such as cocoa, cereals, dried fruits, and tobacco. The adults do not feed. It can cause significant damage on post-harvest storage and is thus a major concern for relevant industries.
