Now that summer is here, the bugs are too! Eventhough I live on the 7th floor, I still can find bugs in my apartment.
One of the places that bugs love the best is the spice rack! And most people don't even think about it. Many times I use a spice and I forget to close it all the way and then the next time, I find a bug. This happens mostly with Zatar, but a bug could be hiding in the Sweet Basil or the Organo.
So, I have a new method to keep the bugs out. I threw away all the old spices, especially the ones that don't close at all. I went and bought big containers of the spices. so that they will fit in the door of my . . . . Freezer!

Yes, it cost a bit much for each bottle, but now they fit nicely in the freezer door and they don't fall out. Next time I need a new spice, I will buy the plastic envelope and fill up the bottle. I keep them in the same order all the time and it is very convient to find and I now know that there are no bugs in my spices. Not exactly shoestring, but this saves a lot of time to check each spice for bugs.
Give it a try?
