How do you keep your sugar?

I used to have problem keeping away ants from my sugar. Even when the sugar were placed in airtight container, the ants keep coming.

My father sugested to put in some cloves in the container. It works for quite sometimes but then the ants came again. Later, I put a few cinnamon sticks and it works! (for almost a year now).

The cloves and the cinnamon does not only keeps away the ants fron my sugar, but also make my sugar smells good without changing the taste of it.
