How Do You Make Natural Moth Repellent For Wool?
Instead of using toxic moth balls, which contain naphthalene, to repel moths try this natural solution! You will keep your wool garments safe without jeopardizing your health. If you suspect your garment has already been attacked by moths, the eggs may be present in the fabric. Place the item in the freezer for 2 days. The cold temperature will kill any eggs or moths present in the fabric. Mix up your moth repellent by placing the herbs in a jar or a large plastic bag and shaking them up well. Make small sachets of the herbs by placing them in small pieces of cotton fabric (cotton breathes) and tying the fabric closed at the top with a ribbon. Make enough sachets to distribute them throughout the wool you are protecting. This will keep your wool items protected while they are in storage. Cedar shavings, or a cedar chest will also help to repel moths from your wool fabrics.
