A sharp Lemon Sachet Mixture: This is a favorite of mine to include in my lingerie drawers. For other scented herbal sachets, betweenclosefriends.com blog contains a wide variety, including 3 herbal recipe alternatives to mothballs. ( Get rid of moths without mothballs, sweet-smelling herbal moth repellent bags, or All-natural sweet smelling moth repellent). Much more pleasing scents, and environmentally friendlier too!
