Hello List=20
I seem to have missed out on a very interesting subject about MOTH. It =
culd be the result of my post relating to the ravages of MOTH in that =
Bechstein grand I had to prepare for a Piano Concerto last week. All the =
under-key felts were RAVAGED. They had to be replaced - in very short =
order. BUT.... How to keep the moth away is the next question. PDB has =
been outlawed in the UK, and I believe moth balls and rings to leave a =
deposit on strings etc. Someone suggested Cedar Wood - sanded roughly =
every so often to keep the perfume live. This sounds like an excellent =
proposition - and very planet friendly (so long as it comes from a =
sustainable source) Anyone like to comment? Like.... How much cedar =
wood. Where to put it. It was Cedar - wasn't it?
Regards from Mothy Old UK

  Dried lavender flowers work much better.
