Mothballs are used globally to stop moth-larvae from damaging stored clothing and valuable furs.. Mothballs can be made of different insecticides, but the main one used is naphthalene. Naphthalene is a bicyclic aromatic compound used ubiquitously in industry agriculture and commerce. It is used for making other chemicals and exploited as an insecticide, soil fumigant or deodorant. Exposure occurs through chronic inhalation, skin contact or consumption in the food chain. The lungs and eyes are susceptible to toxic effects as are the kidney, brain and liver.
