I had that problem till I found out how to fix it. First clean cupboards out of all possible bad food. Buy bay leaves, place a few loose in each cupboard. Then when buying food, freeze it first to kill anything that may have been in there before you bought it. I know, yuck, but most of the problems we all get is from storage before we get it. Once you remove it from freezer, keep in airtight containers as usual and you should be good. I (knock on wood) have been fee of them for several years now, the bay leaves just lay on the shelves in the cupboard, and are not in the way, I have them in every one with food.
