Don't know offhand, but do know napthalene doesn't have registered uses
in sensitive places like Vapona does; e.g.for fogging most types of food
processing plants and dairies, in pet flea collars, on dairy animals for
fly control, etc.

I prefer Vapona resin strips because they are almost odorless.  A friend
sent me a pound of milkweed seeds last year, but didn't tell me he added
napthalene to protect them from bugs. When I opened the bag, the odor
level was so high it practically knocked me off my feet !
I had to air the bag outdoors for days to get the odor down to a
tolerable level.
