It's not that I am Mr. Eco more than Mr. Eeeeek-ohh? Though those
"bombs" are sold in stores, one ought to not use them unless a
tremendous difficulty exists re the 'creepy crawlies' and if you have
food out, or are going to touch anything to eat with, either put it away
or WASH thoroughly.
That's why I said to take everything apart and clean.
You know, those moths that sometimes come into your house from rice or
beans or cereal? Just keep it up and thy'll go if you seal everything
up.
That's another possibility. Seal it all.
That what archiving is primarily able to do if you keep a satisfactory
environment.
