Any Time Is Open Season for Moths Most of us think that summer is the moth season. This is not true, however, for moths can breed at temperatures as low as fifty-five degrees. For this rea son, it is important to Keep mfith crystals that kill by gase asphyri ation in closets, chests and gar ment bags the year around. Household items such as mat tresses, wall-to-wall carpeting and upholstered furniture should be spraysd several times a year with a reliable insect spray. Moths and silverfish, the rayon and paper-eating insect, are not killed by unpleasant odors. They are killed by direct contact with sprays and by gas as crystales evaporate in air tight places. Silver-fish breed around bath room tile and cement Ordinary bathroom cleansers have no ef fect on them, so a spray should be used here, too. The proper amount of nuggets or crystals is about one pound for every one hundred cubic feet of (pace. The gases do not rise, so the crystals should be placed at the top of the garment bag and folded in with each fold of blan: kets or draperies. Most modern vacuum cleanei t have spray attachments which can be filled with crystals and do an execellent spraying job. The b?t way to go^ about stor ing clothes and household arti cles is to first make sure the garments are perfectly clean. Then ? sun them for a couplc of hours, if possible. , Next ? spray them and place in airtight stor age bags Vith ? generous supply of crystals or nuggets at both the top and bottom of the bag.
