My all-wool suit has moth damage on the lapel!

I have examined my other clothes, and there is no sign (yet!) af any
other damage - trust the little buggers to go for the best suit I have.

Any recommendations for prevention of moth damage, apart from the
obvious one of naptha balls?

No. I have great problems because a lot of our clothes are made from wool
and aren't taken out and shaken regularly. Can't do that with balls of
knitting yarn anyway.

On the lapel? Not too bad, make a feature of it, wear a badge or even a
flower :-)

Most of our wool clothing is mediaeval so it's not important. I notice,
though, that the larvae chew through the front, where food is spilt. I
think they like tasty fibres ...

That's what Mary in the Spectator said too.

T'wasn't me. Is the Spectator still going?

Mary

There's more than one woman called Mary ?

well, I never
