Breath that smells like mothballs is often associated with the presence of a compound called naphthalene, which is commonly found in mothballs. This odor can indicate the breakdown of certain substances in the body, such as when the body metabolizes fat or proteins, leading to the release of volatile compounds. Additionally, poor oral hygiene, certain dietary choices, or underlying health issues, such as Diabetes or liver disease, can also contribute to this unusual breath odor. If the smell persists, it may be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

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.

Why does your breath smell like moth balls?

Likely because they keep their clothes near mothballs to protect them from moths that eat the fibers (usually natural fibers like wool or silk). The material in the clothing can absorb the smell. Hanging the clothes in fresh air can dissipate the smell, but may not remove all of it for sensitive noses to identify. Having them cleaned before wearing after that type of storage is the usual solution.
