Moth Repellent Oil for Wardrobe Protection Naturall 100% for Rings Balls Bloks 2x10ml (Cedarwood Lemongrass)

Cedarwood objects have long been used to deter moths but the wood dries out quite quickly in modern centrally-heated homes. For several years, pure cedar oil was used but the bottles were capped by a small plug which can be difficult to remove as well as a large screw-down one. Attempting to add a few drops of oil to a large cedar ball or stick (not possible to dip as the bottle necks are very narrow) often resulted in a proportion of the contents dripping onto a floor or clothing, causing a permanent stain. Rather than 10ml lasting a whole summer, it was often only a few weeks. These bottles use an eye-dropper making dispensing the required amount and getting it into the right spot is made so much easier and wastage is reduced to a minimum, unless over-applied. The oil is quickly absorbed and treatment, whether as a wood conditioner or moth repellent, needs only be repeated at 7-10 day intervals, sooner if the room is hot and the fragrance disappears more quickly. This brand uses a mixture of cedar, lavender and patchouli oils to achieve the same end as those using only cedar. The specific odour of cedar, which one family member finds distasteful, is initially heavily masked by the lavender and the much stronger patchouli; its overall fragrance is therefore then more floral than woody. Over a short period of time, the cedar comes to the fore. For one season, an electronic method of deterrent that was claimed to be fully effective was used. It was effective only in deterring moths from the immediate vicinity of the device but not beyond a radius of about 60-80 cm where they were as plentiful as in previous years. Similar electronic systems to deter cats, dogs and foxes from a garden where considerable damage was done over two previous years (mostly but not solely by foxes) were equally ineffective. While 100% effectiveness can never be guaranteed, this oil mixture appears to work about as well as pure cedar oil in deterring moths from clothes, curtains and drapes, and especially woollen rugs and carpets.

The smell of the oil is divine - almost like a perfume you would wear. I apply it regularly to cedar balls I keep in all my wardrobes and drawers as we have been having a real issue with moths. I am not sure the oil is that much of a deterrent but it makes my wardrobes smell gorgeous. I would recommend using traps as weel if, like us, you have an infestation. This oil will not suffice by itself but it may well prevent the problem in the first place.

I add these oils to my cedar balls and it works so well . The fragrance is fresh and lovely . And the cedar balls continue to do their job . Great product

This product is very dense but smells nice

Bottles are quite small but only a drop seems to be required on the cedar rings that I use. Have not noticed any new moth issues while I have been using this, long may this continue.

It is a great product, unfortunately, I don't really understand if it does the job or not. However, I live the smell.

Time will tell if this works but smell lovely

Very effective. I had no more problems with clothes being destroyed by house moths .

Sehr angenehmer Geruch :) Ich nutze es mit 1-2 Tropfen auf den Staubsaugerfilter für guten Wohnungsduft nach dem Staubsaugen.

Achetée pour lutter contre des mites alimentaires. Quelques gouttes dans les angles intérieur des caissons de cuisine. Cela a l'air de fonctionner car je je n'ai pas revu de mites.

Lo acabo de recibir, lo he puesto en una despensa para evitar las polillas, huele bien

Desde que descubrí las varillas de madera de cedro he dejado de usar las bolsas antipolillas del súper, porque cada temporada tenía que tirar muchas y creo que contaminan. Con este producto, sin embargo, solo tengo que aplicar unas gotas en la madera cada pocas semanas, y así tengo protegidas mis prendas y mis ovillos de lana. Solo necesita dedicarle un rato cada pocas semanas para renovar el efecto antipolillas de la madera. El olor es un poco fuerte, pero por ello es efectivo! Después de aplicar las gotas en las varillas, las extiendo muy bien y dejo unos minutos para que la madera las absorba antes de volver a guardarlas en los cajones.

J'avais oublié de remettre cette huile de cèdre mélangée un peu partout dans la maison, les mites sont revenues en masse. Je viens juste de penser à l'instant à cette huile, j'avais oublié. Maintenant on redeviens libre chez nous, j'en ai mit partout, même sur les étagères où j'ai les bâtonnets de cèdre, ça sent bon. Je me suis empressée de repasser une commande. Chose faite, je conseille ce produit . Quelle bagarre nous avons eu avec autant de mites coriaces. Merci Amazon de faire des recherches pour nous et la planète.
