OMG!!! Did you know my family is from Hungary? I have the care packages of good, hot Hungarian paprika -- and it's very, very well sealed, because the little buggers must have Magyar genes, too!
The worst, though, is the Knorr Swiss bouillon cubes -- they eat through the box, then the foil, then the cube itself. GROSS!!! And, worse yet, I'll go to the cabinet to get some out for Krumple Leves, and find that there's no chicken bouillon because of them! (Yes, the cubes are now stored in airtight containers. Eventually, I do learn...)
The problem I've got, though, is that I've *done* that -- when I say that I've cleaned the cabinets, I mean *everything* out of *every* cabinet; every surface scrubbed; every item carefully inspected and anything suspect thrown out; everything that could be enticing to them in careful packaging before being returned to the shelves.
And, within a week, they're back in force.
By the way, in case anyone cares, I *hate* bugs.
