That reminds me. I was wanting to ask everyone's opinion about that sort of thing. I know that "moth balls" are reliable for keeping the hungry creatures out of one's closets, but they stink. I can't stand the smell of moth balls, and I don't want that chemical around my pets and kids. My dad was raised on a good ole fashion country farm, and he says that cedar is just as effective.

If I could afford it, I would store all our import cloth items in a nice cedar lined trunk. Or better, have a cedar lined closet! In a standard ubiquitous home-improvement store, I came across these cedar disks that you loop onto your hangers. They lost their smell quickly, and probably their efficacy.

Opinions and suggestions welcome.
