I bought dried beans at a bulk store and put them in a mason jar in the pantry. When I went to use them, the jar was full of moths- into the garbage jar and all. I detest bugs of any kind, lucky they are rare in my house- just spiders in the corners sometimes. YUK. I do buy large bags of flour and keep it in a sealed container in the pantry- maybe I should buy some more bay leaves just to be sure.
