Where can I buy Ichneumon wasps for moth control

I've gotten food moths for the 3rd time in 2 years and I can't find Ichneumon wasps anywhere here (or online). Please help me out, I can't throw away all my food againðŸ˜ðŸ˜

You can also buy pheremone moth traps at DM or Rossman. They only trap males, but can slow down the breeding process while you do eradication. I had a problem about five years ago and that helped me a lot.

THANK YOU SM! You're literally a saint. Actually most of my stuff is in airtight containers (got those after the 1st time) but i think i keep getting them from my neighbour, so I gotta invest in some insect nets for the windows too

That's generally not it... You bring them home with dry produce, like flour, rice, beans, etc. Put everything in the freezer for a night before storing them in their intended containers, that will kill off the larvae. They also like to lay eggs in places that you don't check/use every day, like the top of a cupboard or behind it, if it is not 100% flush with the wall.

They die out automatically when there are no more moth eggs. Also they're microscopic.

With that logic, why don't you just burn everything to the ground?
