Ant-free storage tips?
Just when I thought I was winning the war against the Argentine ants in my apartment... Aaaargh!!! It seems that they really love Daily Bread too...and the holes in the crumb provided perfect little tunnels for them. I will spare you a photo of this sad stage of my bread's life :) I can't leave bread on the counter for this reason, so once it is cool I have been putting the loaves in a plastic bag and I hang the bag on a hook from the wall in an attempt to evade the ants. This seems to work sometimes, but every once in awhile they find it and within 2 hours the bag is completely infested (I usually immediately put the entire mess in another bag and throw it in the freezer to kill the ants and salvage whatever is left). So I have found myself hanging bread from alternating doorknobs and hooks throughout the apartment so the ants can't find it...this is CRAZY. I think most people in these apartments give up and store their bread in the fridge, but I really wish I didn't have to do that because the bread doesn't seem as good afterwards...
Any storage suggestions???? Please help!!!
