Was a topic a while ago on here but i forgot what was said about them.

i have a friend who used some inside a house.
No one is living there.

will moth balls have any effect on mice, Bats ect...
I told her twice that i thought that breathing the fumes was very bad for the respatory track.
not sure if she took it seriously. she was pre- occupied. so i feel i should try and inforum her again

People will be going back into the house for a couple hours or more.
Im not sure if it will be safe for them

please fill me in.

mothballs are the cure-all. We'd be out of business if the general public knew!!!

Just kidding, I've literally witnessed bats roosting on them and them in multiple squirrel nests. Please don't use mothballs. They are terrible for your respiratory system and worthless when dealing with wildlife IMHO.

Mothballs are a registered pesticide. The law says you must follow the label.

They will not work.

There was a thread titled 'a picture tells a thousand words' or something close to it. It showed bats roosting 6 inches from a box of moth balls.
