turkey feathers
Eric Krewson:
I collect thousands of feathers every year from my turkey hunting friends. David Mitchell, who runs a custom feather sales company told me to sprinkle borax on them to keep the bugs at bay. I put them in a plastic bag, like the paper is delivered in on rainy days, add a table spoon of borax and shake the bag, no bugs ever after the feathers get a little borax dust in them.
I used to store them in moth balls but the moth ball stink stays with them forever.
