SWMBO has just cut some lavender from the garden, I happened to mention
that my mother and grandmother used to put the flowers in small bags and
put them in the drawers, I had been under the impression that it was just
to use the perfume, but she says it was to deter moths.

Is this true?

Do moths still live in drawers? I have never seen them, maybe the house
price rise has led to a moth migration.
