Abstract
The development of a test for moth-proofing agents is described briefly, from the earliest recorded design of Mechbach1 in 1921 to the present day. A survey and a discussion of several current test methods are presented. The results of four modern test methods, carried out in duplicate in the same laboratory, are compared.Keywords
