Can you still find mothballs? I thought they had been banned in case children ate them as sweets. I did not know Moths had balls...

Why else would they fly with their legs so far apart?
Similarly, I don't know which part of a prawn is its "crackers". Brian Gaff wrote: What? Who said that? Can you still find mothballs? I thought they had been banned in case children ate them as sweets. I did not know Moths had balls... Brian |

The tablets evaporate and a thin microscopic film of "oil" forms on metal surfaces. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pure-Camp...ocC_H5GZzwaokg I don't believe Naptha has the same properties. I don't think that moth balls now sold in the UK contain either Camphor or Naptha -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
