Mr. Fixit's Dilemma



Recently, Mr. Fixit has been working on an insect damaged Florida Room wall, and came up with the (at the time) brilliant idea of sealing 1-2 dozen old fashioned moth balls in the wall to prevent any future bug intrusions. The plan was to place the insecticide in the wall, followed by an application of foam sealant.
Long story short: The Florida Room smelled like the inside of your grandma's cedar chest - oops! Mr. Fixit tried everything to seal the wall, but finally had to open the outside wall and install a small equipment fan (thanks, Skycraft) to draw air to the outside of the house. 
Thanks, Mr. Fixit!
