SC - Tempera question

[Christine A Seelye-King]

I also have it on authority of a Laurel friend of mine that cockroaches
just love to eat egg-based tempera paint.  I wonder what they did in
period to prevent this?  Perhaps in England this was not a problem, but
I'd be willing to be it was in the warmer climes.

 For those interested, it is very period, and was the major paint used 
 for illumination up until the arrival of oil-based paint in the 14th
