Is this container airtight? Will it prevent bugs and moths?

It is not airtight, but I believe it will keep out bugs. At least no bugs have gotten in mine

It's not air-tight but the top lid and drawer fit very well. Something would have to be very small to get in. You could always tape the seams if you needed to.

No big bugs can get in but smaller can do at the back but like the previous answer u can tape it. I never had problems with bugs with this dispenser.

Yeah, it's a solid container w/ proper containment.but it doesn't help you from bugs growing "inside" from the tainted batch

Yes,its amazing.No way bugs or insects can come in unless or otherwise anything u put in has bugs already.I'm very happy with it.

It certainly is not airtight, but i don't think it has enough ventilation to put a computer inside the lockable compartment and run it for an extended period of time. There are a few decent sized holes for cords to run in and out of, but no real "vent. "

I don't. I have a container that is pretty airtight. I have never had any problems.

It probably would keep out moths. I got the thick plastic shelf liner, too. If I was concerned about moths, I would also use cedar blocks to repel them.

yes, it is airtight. It never last long enough to go stale, the container is really small if you stack up, it's a poor design, it takes half the room. Today I only use it to store tea bags, formula, things that takes little room. I now use the zoli sumo snack stack.

The lid fits tight but not sure if it will keep out the moths. I have trail mix in mine at our office so moths are not a problem. But I do have aprroblem with moths at home. Get rid of all the cardboard boxes and use theses traps. Pro-Pest Pantry Moth Traps - 6 Ready to Use Pre-baited Traps (3 Packs of 2 Traps)

No. This container does not seal at all. Worthless if you want an airtight seal and vermin proof I would try the Gamma Vittles Vault containers.

The lid does seem to fit really tightly, but I'm not sure if really small bugs could still get inside. If you really want to be sure, try putting a sheet of plastic wrap over the top then snap on the lid.

I would say yes, it's air tight. There is a rubber seal around the top and it snaps closed. (There is no doubt it is closed tight with the snap) I love mine and even though the contents is several months old, the product is staying fresh

I doubt that any bugs could get in and they seem to keep the dust out, but they are not air-tight. I also just checked to see whether they are water-tight and they are definitely not. So far I have only used mine to store the many bottles of vitamins and supplements that I order from Amazon and they work great for that. I like them just fine and was actually thinking of ordering more. I hope I answered your question adequately.

I don't know for sure but I don't think would be airtight. I have never had an ant problem with the product, however, but I only use it periodically. I don't use it every day.

I would say this container is airtight enough for rice storage and I am quite happy with this item so far so good.

There is a rubber ring around the rim and I believe this allows the jar to seal tight enough to keep out pantry moths and other critters. I have been using these for years and have hand pantry moths during that time (from a cat food bag), but all of the food sealed in these jars remained safe.

Airtight, no - absolutely not. It is not good for storing hazardous chemicals or stinky dead animals.

Hi Roseanna! I placed mine into an airtight container for storage for precisely the reason you cite: anti-vermin. I actually framed the bag! Living in Kaua'i meant a strong likelihood of bugs! Another tip: I placed the jute bag of lentils in the freezer for a week and then brought it back to room temperature before placing the lentils into the air tight container. Since then we have moved to New Zealand to live and the lentils are in perfect condition.

We were having a problem with clothing moths and it kept them out. It does not have holes but cloth sides so that the clothes can breathe. It is not good to store your clothes completely air tight. I've been extremely happy with them.
