Remember me
Though temperatures don't show any sign of dipping just yet, cooler fall nights are fast approaching. So, while it's unlikely that you'll be reaching for the thermostat anytime soon, your attention may be turning to transforming your sleep space for the colder months.
Once you do switch your duvet or comforter for something a little more lofty, the last thing you'll want to find next summer is your summer bedding musty and moth-eaten.
These Cedar Hanging Fragrance Blocks, available at Walmart, provide natural protection to prevent moths, musty odors, and a build-up of mold-causing moisture.
While getting rid of moths is difficult, preventing them in the first place, before you spot any signs you have moths in your home, is far simpler. And with the Cedar Hanging Fragrance Blocks, available at Walmart, it's easier than ever.
The eight-piece cedar block set includes four solid cedar blocks and four hanging blocks for versatile use − perfect for protecting the clothes in your closet and your bedding, whether stored in boxes, under your bed, or in a chest of drawers.

As they're crafted from naturally aromatic cedarwood, they offer a safe and chemical-free method to protect clothing from mold, moisture, odors, and moths, and are safe to use around both children and pets.
Once the scent dwindles and fades, each block can also be easily restored with light sanding, helping to reduce waste and be more sustainable at home.
The handy blocks can also be placed or hung alongside your summer bedding in a linen closet.

If you're currently in the process of making your home less toxic, these cedar blocks are a non-toxic mothball swap, too. Therefore, you won't be left needing to get rid of the smell of mothballs come spring and summer next year.
'I buy this set of cedar blocks for my closets every spring when the weather is warmer, and my winter clothes need protection from moths,' says verified reviewer Dolores. 'The cedar scent is pleasant and not overpowering like moth balls. I highly recommend them!'
Another, SarahJane, assures that they 'smell so good,' adding, 'I've been using cedar in my closets since I was a kid and my grandpa would cut big hunks to put in our closets. He knew that cedar would draw out moisture and keep any smells at bay.
