DON'T FORGET TO MOTHPROOF

Friend Sylvia's smart-phone photo sent straight from the sunny south of France serves as a reminder for un truc de grand-mère:  put sachets of dried lavender in the closets to chase away clothing moths.

Vocabulary
une mite:  a moth
un antimite:  a moth repellent, mothproofer
un truc:  a thing; a trick; here a tip
traité à l'antimite:  mothproofed
