The revisitation of an ancient recipe by the personal physician of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria for totally delousing garment and clothes both infested or destined to be infested

Abstract

Clothes and garment delousing has been for centuries a very important trouble and manifold researches had attempted to loose the problem, employing heat or cold vapours of petroleum derivatives, or camphor or naphthalene. Most recently aromatherapy has shown some quite appreciable results as far as this concern is involved, since all methods forecasting the usage of petroleum derivatives and naphthalene tend to ruin garment and let those become stinky and difficult to be worn by individuals. I have discovered and revisited an ancient recipe by G. van Swieten from Leiden, personal physician of Maria Theresa of Austria. I have obtained very thrilling results that encourage its employ in all kinds of garment for all ages and sexes.
