are these good for sachets, like herbs used for moth repellent?

They might be - the weave is nice & tight, so small pieces of herbs won't fall out, creating a mess. But my guess is that you'd prefer to use a cotton or muslin pouch for something like that - a natural material, rather than a synthetic. I'm sorry, I can't be of more help than that.

I should think so. But, that being said, since organza is a slippery fabric I'd make sure I tied the ribbons instead of just drawing them shut.

The cartridges were made for a curling wand. That's what I use them for. I do not know about mosquito repellent apparatus.

Don't be fooled by the picture..you get tiny little bags of several herbs. They are all herbs you can use in making salves and ointments and in ritual use. I wouldn't recommend cooking with them.

I do not know why the lures I received did not attract moths. They have work very well for me in the past and I ordered four of them. Would appreciatereply from SAFER

I think they would work for fine for herb plants-especially if you are starting them from seed. Of course as they grow and become root-bound, you would need to go to a larger size pot. You would also need to have some kind of tray under them because of the holes. Hope this answers your question.

Well, I've tried some other herbs that were similar in size, and they seemed to work fine. Although I've never actually ground the kampot peppercorns, I would say that they should work.

You could try. It works best for "needle" type herbs. Basil & others have big leaves, much easier to pick them off stems.

They work for any flying or jumping bug. It's a wonderful alternative to chemicals. They are very sticky so be careful when handling them.

I bought these to use in camper over the winter, had read the ingredients in them would repel mice. But, there is almost no fragrance in them at all. Not sure they will repel mice or moths. Might be just a waste of money. Just no smell. Sorry!!!

Yes. It can be used to repel a variety of insects (primarily fleas and ticks both). http://www.ehow.com/about_6447560_diatomaceous-earth-used-tick-control.html and http://wolfcreekranch1.tripod.com/diatomaceous_earth_fleas.html

You need to ask the seller..l bought them and they arrived quickly and smelled delicious. Apparently food grade quality. Mine came with recipes. I make sachets - I never used them any other way.

I use mine for Orchids and African Violets--works great. I would think it would work for herbs.

To use moth balls one simply place them in an enclosed space or container along with whatever one wishes to protect from fabric eating moth larvae. They slowly emit fumes which get rid of the pests. The fumes are rather pungent so your storage chest or closet should be reasonable tight. Your woolens will smell rather pungent after you remove them for a few hours. Mothball do work for the purpose intended.

We use them for spices in chili. My husbands mother used them to shake out corn starch for heat rash. I think you would be able to smell lavender through them. I can smell the spices through them.

They work well for preventative maintenance. If you are already infested use neem oil, or mighty wash. Half the bugs arrived dead, but I still had enough.

No, these are large incense sticks. You just light them and stick them in the ground or in a plant pot somewhere out of the way. I generally light 3 or 4 and they burn for hours, and they really do repel the mosquitoes!

These traps are for pantry moths. They will work, however, to be rid of them, you need to consider where they come from, which is usually grain related. You won't regret getting these traps, but it would take more than these alone to be completely rid of them. You'll want to make sure items like pasta, cereal, flour, oats, etc are stored wisely. The traps work by using pheromones to attract the moth and glue to capture it. I recommend to try them, but realize that the traps alone cannot "solve" the problem.
