Moth balls, break with a hammer into a few pieces and sprinkle around
their usual haunts, they do not like it.

Can you still buy them? I thought they were forbidden now ...

I didn't know that Mary, I last bought them at the Co-Op at Norwich
but it was some time ago. Camphor wasn 't it????

Judith

No, naphthalene, we used to use it to prevent wax moth in beehives (when
they were empty of course) but it was withdrawn, I thought.

I could be wrong - it has been known :-)
