Default Re: Maggots!

I've put moths traps up but haven't caught any. Checked all the cages but found nothing aside from very annoyed hamsters.
Haven't checked food cupboards because i don't use flour, sugar etc and pasta is kept in airtight glass jars and gets boiled anyway.
Have seen and killed three pantry moths recently and now i wonder where they came from.
My OH thinks they came in from upstairs windows that were jammed for years but have been sorted because he finally remembered to purchase a can of WD40.

Where do pantry moths come from?
Do they normally live outdoors?

Strange too how three of us here are pestered by them at the same time.
