<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taupou, post: 9726183, member: 45&quot;]I agree with the moth problem, since I&#039;ve been battling moths for years, and I collect Navajo rugs.&nbsp; Problem is, most wool items, that moths seem to prefer, are ruined by water. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve found that putting the wool items in the freezer for a couple days, then taking them out for a day, and replacing them in the freezer until they freeze again (overnight, or a day or so, depending on the size) greatly helps the problem, <u>if you remember to do the whole process</u> <u>as soon as you bring the new items into the house</u>.&nbsp; It apparently freezes the moths that may be present, and lets any eggs hatch after the first freeze, and then freezes and kills the new larvae before they do any damage.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>All I know is, it works.&nbsp; Although, you need to do it a couple times a year, to be sure, and have a big freezer!&nbsp; (I wrap the item first in a cotton sheet.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
