Now most people don't need to kill insects for the bumper harvest of crops, but cold clothes should be protected by insect prevention measures when they enter bars.
There are three main kinds of insects that eat clothes, namely tunicates, midges and moths. They are all small people who like to hide in the cracks of the wardrobe. In wet and warm seasons, they will crawl out and eat clothes made of natural fibers such as wool, cotton or silk, resulting in small holes in the clothes.
The most convenient way to eliminate these pests is to buy various chemical insect repellents. The main component of most insect repellents is naphthalene, which will give off an unpleasant smell to insects after being placed to prevent clothes from being eroded. However, naphthalene is toxic, which can cause dizziness, vomiting and hemolytic anemia after inhalation, and it is more likely to cause renal failure or even death for patients with silkworm bean disease. On the other hand, in the process of volatilization, naphthalene may corrode synthetic fiber clothing, causing holes in clothing larger than insects.
Naphthalene is extracted from coal mines, and the production process will produce a lot of carbon emissions. Although the temporary research does not show that naphthalene has a direct impact on the environment, for our own health and at the same time reduce carbon emissions, we can refer to people's practices in the past and use natural organic pesticides to drive away pests. For example, use lavender or dried pepper that pests are afraid of, just put lavender or dried pepper in the net bag with clothes. Or you can wrap clothes in plastic bags so that pests can't get close. More importantly, it is necessary to wash and dry clothes before storing them. Secondly, it is necessary to ensure that the wardrobe is dry and pests cannot breed naturally.
