    I keep my kilts hanging inside hermetically sealed garment hangers. Inside I have moth cakes. Also, I have a cedar Lane chest in which I keep my woolen hose and sweaters.

    Will moths eat wool blends? Why do they eat wool in the first place? Will they eat other textiles?

    According to the University of Kentucky, yes, moths will eat wool blends.
    As for why they eat it, apparently "they’re hungry and they like the taste of wool."
