I tried the bean box at first. I live in Florida, so it may not affect Northerners now, but beans, at least the ones I bought, had fly eggs or something in them. The day after I opened the bag and put it in the box, the flies were everywhere. BIG flies...as soon as I got rid of the beans they were gone. Beware...just FYI! Enjoy!
