I've read many people's comments that starch attracts bugs. I don't know if it's all starches - commercial and homemade, or if it's only the homemade versions. I don't often use starch, but when I do, it's Sta-Flo because it keeps forever and it's easy to control the dilution.
Starch is a food for bugs - made from corn starch. Sizing is not a food source so does not attract bugs. Living in south FL makes you very aware of what not to use!! I prefer Magic Sizing & Best Press makes me gasp & not just over the price! LOL!
