But for heavens’ sake, store it airtight. We brought home hundreds of little visitors in a bag from Sam’s. $100 and 4 trips from the exterminator and they’re finally all gone. I also freeze some stuff for a couple days before storage.

When we lived overseas and most of the goods in the store were shipped in from the states, we often had “visitors” in the flower, rice, etc.. We just put it in the freezer for a week or so then moved it to dry storage. Once we had 50Lbs or flower, 25lbs of sugar, and 50lbs of rice in the freezer, people just laughed at us, but we didn't have bugs.

I freeze rice and flours and keep them in the freezer until I use them. I keep all my nuts and dried fruits in the refrigerator. You could probably do the same with dried milk and buttermilk and dried egg products, I would guess.
