HOW TO COMBAT MOTHS
Now Is the Time to Protect Winter
Clothing From Them
If winter eluthing is to be protected
from damage 'by moths, precautions
must be taken in early spring
Dry cleaning offers the safest method
of protectino.
"Our experience indicates that dry J
cleaning is the safest method of ^a'<-l
ing care of woolen garments," says
Mrs. Cornelia C. Morris, district home
agent of the State College extension
service. "For a small sum extra, the
cleaner will mtoth-<proof the woolen
fabrics and thus insure them against
damage during the summer. Tar
paper bags and cedar chests are safe
only when clean garments are placed
in them. If the moths have already,
laid thoir cgg^, the larvue will hatch
out and destroy the tfalbric no. matter
how carefully the garment* ape pack-j
ed away. Before sfcdring clothing,
each garment should be thoroughly
beaten, , cleaned and aired."
The storage closets should also be
cleaned and the walls and shelves
wiped off with gasoline or turpentine.
The moths dislike these odors, says
Mrs. Morris. Casoline is also excellent
for washing sweaters,-'woolen
hose, aSd all the other accumulations
of woolens 'which every household
possesses,
Wash the blankets thoroughly and
wrap each one in paper before storing,
advises Mrs. Morris. Have the
rugs dry cleaned and rolled with lay
era of paper in them. Use moth balls
and cntaphor gum in the trunks,
boxen and closets. In addition, there
are some excellent products on the
market that may be used for spraying
the garments and blankets to
prevent moth damage. Some of them
are gir.arar.tced.
When the gntnveriU -are stared, inspect
them frequently for moth damage.
