Cedar Chips

Repel moths and insects naturally with these Himalayan Cedar chips. These wood shavings have a beautiful scent to deter moths and protect your stored knits or yarn/fabric stash from damage. No chemicals. No waste. Just beautiful timber smells.

Comes to you in a cotton pouch with a drawstring so you can either tie to a coat hanger or place in a draw near your yarn and knits.

Himalayan Cedar essential oils are also known to reduce anxiety and promote good sleep, which is great news if you're keeping these blocks in your bedroom. The smell is best described as zesty like pine but with a hint of lime and deep woody, earthy tones.

This untreated Himalayan Cedar is locally sourced and milled in Nelson. Each 30g bag measures approx 14 cm x 9 cm.

Cedar Care: Natural cedar oils can leach and stain wool or silk over time. For safe storage, position away from direct contact with your textiles to allow the scent to circulate without oil transfer.

Deciding between Cedar Blocks or Chips?

• Chips have a stronger scent and can be refreshed by squeezing the bag every few weeks to provide an immediate, intense scent boost for smaller drawers and project bags. Will last for about a year.
• Blocks act as a slow-release battery with the scent packed deep inside the wood. Because you can sand the surface to expose "fresh" wood, a single block can potentially last a lifetime. Choose chips for a quick scent hit and blocks for long term protection.
