Are you looking for a chemical-free method for storing your winter woolens without the threat of moth holes when you next need them?
Lavender is one of the best aids to help turn away moths. The natural aromas in lavender repel moths. In spite of being the insect world's pickiest eaters (only your finest natural fibers, will satisfy), it seems moths do not share our attraction to the purple flower's perfume.
Lavender is a good moth repellent and will keep your clothes smelling fresh.
Dried lavender in sachets are a terrific way to store you alpaca clothing for the winter, and once in storage. Place several in your drawers, or hang sachets from the hanger in your closet. Sachets are lavender colored, with a satin tie, and make great gifts.
