We've got a storm cellar in which I keep my wine, and last night I noticed that a lot of the labels have been eaten away around the edges. I'm guessing that it's silverfish which keep doing this, though I've never seen any down there.
The odd thing is that the bottles of wine laying in wooden wine crates don't seem to be affected, but the ones which are laying in open boxes and the bottles being stored upside down in cardboard wine cases seem to be affected the most. In fact, one box appears to have had the outside of it eaten up in various spots all over it.
The bottles with the vinyl labels aren't affected.
I guess I'm going to have to pull all the wine out and drop a bug bomb down in there to get rid of all the bugs. It's not a real big space down there, so hopefully it will be fumagated easily.
