Where can I get a moth repellent?
Question:My house is being invaded by moths and I need a way to repel them. On average I see about 10 a week and I kill all the ones that I can but they just keep coming. What can I do to repel them ?
Answers:
If they are the small moths that eat little holes in your clothes you need moth balls (from the hardware store) or the modern day equivalent is put 1 drop of pure essential oil of lavender on a tissue and place it in each drawer or place where you think the moths are.
If you are talking about the large moths I have no idea except to burn lavender essential oil in a burner 5 drops in water should do it - make sure you don't let it burn dry and keep eye on candle.
Turn your lights off
they're attracted 2 light...so if u dont want moths...turn lights off
Get some good solar panel charged lighting and put them in your garden, so that when night falls, the moths will be attracted to them. Don't put these lights near the places you like to sit at night, in your garden, otherwise they will be flapping around your head.
Close windows&doors, and in the heat of the summer when you want the doors and windows open, instal a lockable mesh door (there are some really nice ones about now,) & close your windows.
Moths are attracted to light - hence you'll find in a good DIY store special trap lights for moths and other insects - they do the killing job for you.
