Digital BW, The Print

If you are matting prints with museum board, you have to seal the frame,
with glass (preferably acrylic) and an acid-free backing board.  Otherwise
the matt board is a delicacy for insects.

I thought the whole point of purchasing Archival quality matting products
was because this won\ufffdt happen.  The glass is good for preventing dust and
spills but does not provide an airtight environment...

Am I missing something?  If we mount our prints
without glass or acrylic to protect the print and
matte, what happens to the matte?  Won't exposure to
the enviroment soon wreak havoc on the Matte?
