During the Y2K preps we had some family members who did an experiment with bay leaf. They put dried beans into plastic 5 gallon buckets generously interspersed with bay leaf from the spice shelf. About 10 years later we were present when they opened them and no bugs, and they tasted just fine!

I’ve heard that old wives’s tale. A friend of mine puts bay leaves all about her pantry too.
