I just made a distressing discovery. For a couple of years, I've had several hand-knotted Asian rugs stowed on top of the three-section IDEA storage shelving in the basement. They are rolled and tied, and wrapped in the plastic in which they came home from the cleaners. Now that the shelving unit is more than half empty, I hauled them down this afternoon to move them to a more accessible place. Two of them -- my favourites! -- are crawling with moths. I did not even open the plastic, let alone unroll them to assess the damage. So tomorrow I have to call the rug cleaners. Effing hell. In other news, the ReStore guys from Habitat for Humanity have hauled away the excess bed frame.
