Well, hello there, friend! To dissolve mothballs, you'll need to place them in a container with a solvent like acetone or paint thinner. Make sure to wear gloves and work in a well-ventilated area. Remember, mistakes are just happy accidents, so take your time and be gentle with yourself as you work through this process.
Mothballs are legally sold for use of the purposes listed on the label. It is illegal to use mothballs for other purposes including using mothballs in gardens.

the mothballs will fly away
I have never known mothballs to cause nose bleeds.

No, most modern mothballs contain 1,4-dichlorobenzene, while older mothballs contained naphthalene. Neither of these chemicals are useful in the production of methamphetamine.
