+ ! Flying moth millers can't use
winter woolens for a nesting place
when garments are thoroughly
cleaned and then stored in a mo-
dern cedar chest which has a bona
fide insurance policy against moth
destruction.
Once laid, these eggs hatch into
destructive larvae whose pillage
and plumber leave a scorched earth
trail on our best blankets, furs,
suits and other woolens.
Preservation of all woolens
means putting part-wool things
safely in cedar chests right along
with the heavier, bulkier all-wool
articles such as blankets, overcoats
and the like. So, keep an alert eye
ready to spot, and include, all those
pretties which have a little wool
mixed with other fibers in your
wool preservation plans.
For absolute moth protection, all
stored articles not only must be
put away thoroughly clean but must
be placed in "air. tight" containers
imnervious to the type of damage
which permits accidental tears to
develop and open a doorway for
moth invasion.
+ For use in the home, the very
safest of all such containers is the
cedar chest made of 70 per cent
red cedar heartwood. This type of
container not only is constructed
to give guaranteed moth protection
but is so styled and finished that
homemakers have handsome piece
of furniture as well as a safe
storage place for out of season
woolens.
