USDA entomologists developed EQ-53 to add to rinse water for mothproofing blankets and similar textiles. University of Illinois entomologist Steve Moore notes the chemical is sold under various trade names and appears on most containers.
The label discusses identifying EQ-53 in print and asks readers to request it from retailers if not locally available. It explains using several spoonsful in wash or rinse water to leave a small amount of DDT in wool to repel insects, protecting woolens against larvae of moths and carpet beetles.
A safety guidance notes that stored woolens can be protected for a season if not washed or dried, but washing or dry cleaning reduces insecticide levels. It warns against using EQ-53 on baby clothes and advises treating infant woolens only for storage and then dry cleaning before reuse.
