An Ounce of Prevention
If you store your woolens in a cedar chest, use an ounce of prevention... in the form of moth crystals or mothballs... instead of relying altogether on the cedar trunk’s aromatic fumes to ward off moths. Although new cedar chests do give protection from moths, it is safter to treat woolens with a good mothproofing agent before they’re stored, say scientists of USDA’s Agricultural Research Service. This is especially important with older cedar chests. Tests show that red cedar Ibses some of its effectivene ss against moths after two years, and white or South American cedar after 12 to 20 months. Researchers also find that the tightness of a chest is an important part of the mothproofing.
This applies also to cedarlined closets. They should be tight and woolens mothproofed before storage.

This is due to a series of extension privileges, announced by the Treasury as maturity dates ap Droached.
