Would silica gel work for Paradichlorobenzene as well?

Try removing naphthalene residues from a cabinet with a lil topless jar or two filled with silica gel. 'Might take a few weeks or months.
If the experiment indicates silica gel will do the trick, you should be able to buy 55 gallon drums of the stuff from VWR. Makeup jars are easy to buy wholesale by the case.
