You have got me worried, I usually store mine in the shed, individually
wrapped in newspaper, and so far, thank goodness, I haven't noticed any
trouble, but I will go out in the morning to check them!
If your shed has a door, Alan, I am sure they will be OK, unless of
course rats or mice eat through the floor.
Rats eat through anything, mice get through a hole small enough to take e.g.
a candle.

Yes indeed and cause a lot of damage to stored crops very quickly. This
is why Bob Flowerdew recommends an old dead freezer or fridge for
storage of fruit as they are rodent-proof. Only works, of course, if you
have room for them.
