and fill the gap with colt or paper.
Protecting your doll from moths
If you put your doll in a plastic bag, it should be protected under most circumstances,
however dolls that are accompanied by accessories like swords or crowns are susceptible to infestation by moths and other vermin hence it is recommended that you store these accessories together with some kind of moth and/or vermin repellent.
Please note well that in recent times, the hands and some other parts of the dolls may contain plastics or other chemicals, which may or may not have an adverse chemical reaction with the gas released by the moth and/or vermin repellent.
Under these circumstances, discoloration of the doll is a possibility, and therefore it is recommended that the doll itself is kept stored separately from any such moth and/or vermin repellent.
