I've been informed that the glue used to hold cardboard boxes together gives off a scent that attracts all sorts of bugs, they'll enter the attic through the eaves or vents. Avoid cardboard. We stored our cardboard boxes on the floor of the closet in one of the spare rooms, put plastic storage containers in the garage. We decided not to use the attic at all, too tough to access and unsure of what would keep properly.
