FAQ About Storage Jars
Storage jars can be used for more than just storing food. You can also use them to save packaging material when shopping. The best place to do this is at a non-packaging store. You can also use them to store cotton pads, cotton swabs, toothpicks or paper clips. They are also ideal for canning and fermenting.
Storage jars are available with screw lids and swing tops. They also differ in the type of lid, so they can be made of bamboo or cork. Some jars have a silicone or rubber seal, making them airtight and watertight.
To protect against moths, food should definitely be packed airtight. Moths can easily bite through paper and plastic packaging. Glass insulates effectively and thus protects against moth infestation. You can therefore use any storage jar that is packed airtight.
