    Dusty - moths are a nightmare. Hopefully it's just one that's wandered in as they do that in the autumn. However, if you are worried, then you'll need to do what I did earlier this year and wash, dryclean or freeze pretty much every textile in the house! I have pheromone traps too... and a camphor wood chest for woollens.

    I know you use naturalcollection - they have moth-repellent oil which some of my friends use. If you have wooden shelves you can rub it into the shelves.

    Good luck!

    Toots' light is off... does this mean she's actually gone to bed on time for once?!
  • Hello. Count me in again please.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    Morning All

    Just eating breakfast - TD's on and I need to do a HHI. Going to load the WM in a min and get dressed, then I'll see if I can make a start on my list before work.

    Staff meeting tonight so don't know how much time I'll have when I get in.

    Loopy-Lou - hugs for you and your sister.

    Morning, though it's still very dark and feels like the middle of he night.

    Rough night. DD has been up twice because of earache.:sad: Poor little thing, I hate earache. Seeing as I have to be up for work in 50 mins there didn't seem much point in trying to get anymore sleep. I'll end up with one of those fuzzy headaches.

    So in true flylady style. I shall give my list some thought...............and............... browse ebay whilst thinking about it:p
