Luckily I mostly use acrylic yarn (proper wool irritates my skin if I knit with it for more than about half an hour) <br /><br />Nic - I've never had a problem with them before either. Very annoying!<br /><br />A bird in the hand & Hydrangea Girl - yup, lavender is a traditional chemical-free way of deterring moths. It has the added bonus of keeping your clothes smelling lovely too :)Bugs and Fisheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06973019615558057522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-68619282449772862422011-09-05T19:14:27.700+01:002011-09-05T19:14:27.700+01:00Does this really keep moths at bay Laura?
