moth balls

Who still uses these

i just need to vent. My mil decides to use moth balls for some reason to store sheets for the guest bedroom.
Who does this anymore?! Lol

Well the entire guest bedroom stinks with the most overbearing smell of moth balls that I almost threw up. Im not just being sensitive or exagerrating my dh said the whole room smells like a giant moth ball. I mean you open the door and BAM you get hit in the face with the smell. She was like o thats not that bad i just took the sheets out it will air out. Ummmm no moth ball smell doesnt air out it attaches itself to everything.
Then i read moth ball smell is toxic to pregnant women actually its toxic PERIOD.

So im sleeping on the couch right now. 8.5 months and im on a damn couch. Uncomfortable, cold and exhausted. I slept maybe 3 hours total and not continuosly. To top it off my dh could care less which further annoys me. He just went to bed and was like o ok go sleep on the couch.

Well I cant do this for another night. I want to go home i feel shaky and weak now! Ive been up since 5 am.
I just want my bed!!!
Please dont quote ill end up deleting... Thanks
