Darren recently wondered why moth balls are so stinky and so effective against moths. Here is my theory:
Moth balls are just that - the balls of very large moths who live in the Amazon (because all insects are larger there). The moths are captured and castrated, and the balls are sold to your local stores. They are stinky because, well, they are BALLS. And it's not the smell that repels our little moths here in the states - it's the fear. They see that giant ball and they think "crap, if a giant moth didn't make it out of here, how will I?" and they make a run for it.
Happy Monday.
