I think we got a handle on this issue and may have resolved it. I wrote last time that I had used a hose with a spray nozzle to spray around the underside of the trailer and this dislodged the moths and revealed their hiding spots. The problem was it did not kill them and they would return. I tried using a regular can of bug spray and that seemed to help but I could not reach many parts of the underside with the spray. While at Wal-Mart, looking at the insecticides I thought maybe the spray that you attach to a hose would be just what I needed. This would allow me to spray the entire underside of the trailer, and truck.
I used the spray and the moths came flying out and this time they were dropping dead. That evening we only had a handful of moths enter the trailer and last night we only had two, so things look promising!
We did move from Liberal, Kansas to Wellington, Kansas (just south of Wichita) and will be here for the weekend before we drive into the Kansas City area. A fun treat when we get to Kansas City is meeting up with my old boss and his wife who are snowbirds. The spend the winters in South Texas and the summers in Wisconsin. I emailed them to see what their travel plans were and it worked out they were getting ready to head to Wisconsin and would be coming through Kansas City. The timing worked out perfectly.
