Cedar and moths

HEY EVERYONE!
A quick question,is cedar a moth repellant?
Ken[huh]

Hi, Ken,

Apparently cedar is a moth repellant - I mentioned it to the wife and she gave that " I'm married to a retard look" cause everyone is supposed to know this.

Just buy a couple of small cedar slats 2" x 18" and place them in the jackets.

Harkening back to my days in college and my minor in botany...no. People assumed cedar chests would protect clothes from bugs, but what really did it was that the chests were better made than regular closets and dresser drawers and sealed tighter. They were also opened less than regular drawers and closets, so less chance of a bug getting in. But, with cedar as arromatic as it is, it makes things smell wonderful.
