Females usually produce around 300 eggs during three weeks. And the egg-to-larva stage takes around two days. These larva go on to become adults in two weeks to ten months depending on the environment.  Most moths have a life span of about 8 weeks.

The larva usually provides a silk web for hiding.  This moth type is usually active at night. They feed on grains and processed foods.
