Pantry moths...
#11
I went through a bakelite collecting phase recreating the kitchen I grew up in with its green lidded cream bristolite containers. Strangely enough I never had pantry moths in those, maybe because they are out on open shelving with plenty of light, and seal quite well despite being well over 60 years old. Or maybe something in the ancient plastics puts the pests off.

Trouble with those light weight containers though is my increasing clumsiness as I lose strength in my grip means I am inclined to spill the contents, so I am slowly swapping over to huge old glass jars that require a two handed grab, so safer despite their weight.

I will miss the green and whites though, but am comforted by the price they'll fetch when I finally get round to listing them!
