You could keep your merino wool items in a zip lock plastic (I know, I am swearing!) bag which would stop them getting to it to re-infest after they have been in the freezer.Granny's Button Boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822845675603176211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5450934855564746299.post-84899918731089148662019-11-30T10:33:25.065+00:002019-11-30T10:33:25.065+00:00Yes I've heard this, but never got round to tr...Yes I've heard this, but never got round to trying it. I think I've also heard that you have to do it once, get them out and do it again - something to do with the egg laying cycle? It has not happened in any of my other wool garments. I believe the moths like merino more than other wool, which sets me off on the path of - why are we so keen on merino? We used to have wool undergarments before merino became fashionable. Even if it's to do with comfort I'm sure that in this day and age we should be able to produce something equally comfortable from British wool. In fact I've got a couple of army surplus tops which are a mixture of wool and synthetic - not sure what type of wool as the label is too old to read, but not merino - and they have not got holes in. They are a bit thick though. I must ask my Royal Marine SIL what his underwear is made of....LizzieLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00854229133345270816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5450934855564746299.post-35074063168499900852019-11-29T20:24:22.523+00:002019-11-29T20:24:22.523+00:00Hiya, if you have a moth problem put your woollies...Hiya, if you have a moth problem put your woollies in the deep freeze this kills the little blighters!<br />Granny's Button Boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822845675603176211noreply@blogger.com
