Do the cherry pits smell when you warm the bags up?
Not really sure why you want the bags to sit up? I made three different sized bags, the two larger ones are just slightly different in size, one is square, the other rectangular. They are filled with rice and lavender buds.

I have never had a problem with bugs or rodents, and some of the bags I have around here have been around, and used and reused for a long time. I thought it was an interesting remark about how many times one could be used before it had to be replaced. I don't see that as a problem.

I do put them into ziplocks if I put them into the freezer to keep the cloth dry. Frost free my Aunt Fanny, lol.
