Whilst sorting out stuff for the cake shop & having some odd tv show in the background I overheard the best solution for preventing moths & their little critter of eggs ruining your cashmere... First, they hate Cedar - so spray some oil onto a piece of kitchen towel (or equivalent) and pierce a little hole so that it pops over your hanger, and hang one pieces on every 5/6 hangers which should keep those little buggers away.
If your wardrobe is rammed like sardines full of wool, cashmere etc... it's more than likely that your cashmere has moth eggs - yuck-o-rama!
How to get rid???
Chuck your cashmere into a frozen zip lock/see through plastic bag - make sure it's sealed and place in your freezer, yup FREEZER over night. This will kill the eggs for sure.
BTW the eggs are so tiny, they're not visible to the eye...
So there you have it!

Hot tip: Dealing with Mosquito bites
If you're on holiday somewhere in Greece or the Greek Isles this summer, chances are you'll be mauled by mossies.
Get to a pharmacy - avoid all the expensive stuff they've laid out in-store and ask for Fenistil Gel from behind the counter. It comes in a tube in an orange box and costs around 3 euros max. This gel acts as an anti-histamine and helps with the healing process. Also managed to find that you don't get too itchy and scratchy too which is a bonus.
