Mothballs ineffective Animal's arent "repeled" from mothballs, but they may avoid (step over) them, if they were just placed there. Naphthalene and Paradichlorobenzene sublimate quickly, so for extended periods of time in the outdoors the chemical's would be so dilute. I even doubt they would be so much as unpleasent to animal's unless you fertilze your lawn with them. My answer is pretty much no. PLUS, if you place them near your house (say, under your deck or in an attached shed), chances are excellent YOU will be repelled by the odor, and will be constantly compelled to think about long days spent in your elderly aunt's attic (which, unless she stashed the cash she bequeathed to you up there, is/was not a pleasant experience).

Would mothballs have an immediate effect on your fuel system and would it smell like mothballs when the engine is running...how can you tell if your tank has been spiked?
In a recent Mythbusters, it was determined to be "plausible" that mothballs can actually increase your car's mileage. If mothballs were placed in your gas tank, I suspect you would smell the scent mothballs as they dissolved and then burned. It doesn't sound like mothballs would "spike" your tank. How can you tell if your tank has been spiked? If you cannot tell, it probably doesn't matter.
