Mothball Smell

From Lucky Magazine, october 2005:

Q: Is there any way to get the mothball smell out of my sweaters?

A: The most thorough way is to put your woolens in a garbage bag with a couple of fabric softener sheets and close the bag tightly. The smell will be gone in a few days. But if you want to wear something right away, place it in the dryer with a dryer sheet and put it on "air fluff" for about 20 minutes.
