Are moths a problem in your home? If so, then you probably use mothballs in your closet. Those mothballs can leave a lingering odor in your closets, too. Here's how to get rid of that odor without harming the effectiveness of the mothballs.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Potpourri blend
• Potpourri bag or cheesecloth
• Bay leaves
• String

1. Take about a cup of the potpourri blend.

2. Place it in the potpourri bag.

3. If you don't have a potpourri bag, cut a large square of cheesecloth and place the potpourri in that.
