How can I keep pests away from my Annalee collection?
How inviting the warm months of summer are. Folks venture out more, to mingle and travel and enjoy the pleasant weather.

The same natural wool fiber that gives our dolls their rich look, also tempts moths as a tasty morsel. To ward off the moths you may try moth balls, placed in the same container with the dolls, while they’re in storage. (The pungent odor of moth balls also seem to deter small varmints like mice and squirrels.) A natural alternative is cedar.
