But many pests are not happy with it.

Therefore, you can take natural fabric, wrap a few bay leaves in it and put it in the closet. You can forget about moths.

But it is not only the wardrobe with clothes that can be protected from insects. Pests can also appear in kitchen cabinets, especially if we are talking about cereals, legumes, flour.

You need to put a couple of bay leaves directly into the storage containers. You can also leave some of the spice in the cupboards themselves.
