That's part of why I try to store all my stuff in plastic Contico storage
containers (available at Costco) rather than boxes. They aren't airtight,
but they do make it a little harder for insects to find their way to the

I've been told by an archivist that you actually do NOT want to store
books and such in an airtight container. They need to breathe. I have
no idea why.
