An anti moth idea.

Intresting article from U of California on clothes moths:

Pheromone traps to trap male moths? They suggest putting them in the closet but I really don't think we want a moth attractant in with our kilts. Kind of makes me wonder if their head is screwed on correctly. I think I would prefer to detect them outside, in the room, before they enter the closet.

Pyrethrin insecticides don't leave persistent toxic residues, which makes them more suitable for clothes moth control in many cases than a lot of other products. Most flea and tick dog sprays for bedding, carpets and on the dogs coats use pyrethrins. I have and use both as my dog loves to romp in the park with other dogs.

I have been using these moth traps for some time now: http://www.ruskovilla.fi/EN/Products/Moths_protection

A couple of years ago I had a serious moth problem but got rid of those with these traps. I keep some two or three of them hanging in my house all the time. They say on the package that it is effective 12 weeks after opening but I keep them hanging a couple of months more before opening new ones. (I mark the date it was opened on the trap to know how old it is.)
I have never put them in the closet. There I have some cedar blocks to keep the moths away. My idea is that if the trap is in the closet it will attract male moths in and all of them might not end in the box before finding an attractive female.
