[Danni]

Does anyone know about the effects etc about mothball exposure?

Napthalene exposure due to misuse of mothballs can cause bleeding problems in babies. I don't think just ordinary exposure - having some in your cupboard would be an issue, just sniffing (to get high) and eating them. Apparently some people do that.

I do know that babies clothes should never be exposed to moth balls.
