Default How not to store batting.

Just wanted give everyone a warning on a problem I have run into-
I was pulling out some packaged batting's that I have stored on a shelf and found something unexpected. A beautiful king sized bamboo batting is covered with tiny little scraps of plastic. I am guessing that a biodegradable plastic has started to break down. I picked it up on sale and it has been on my shelf for a couple of years.
I guess that I am going to have to sit down and pick all of the tiny bits off of the batt because of course the plastic is all clingy from static and won't just shake off.to make matters worse the bits are very fragile and crumble further when touched. What a mess!
I will take it as a sign that I should quilt more so that I can use up stashed goods faster.
How do you store batting?
