Weevil Bugs In Pasta

Weevil Bugs In Pasta. These tiny creatures are in the beetle family. I admit - seeing flour bugs or even bugs in your whole grains, rice and pasta can be pretty gross - but all is not lost and in fact, it's pretty common!

Weevils can get into your pasta just like how they get into any of your other dry goods. I also found some in cocoa and chocolate candy bars. Find facts on their appearance, size, behavior, habitat, infestation signs, preventative and control tips.

What are the little bugs in my pasta?

Poorly sealed or opened packages are all prime targets for weevil Rice weevils can be difficult to exterminate after they infest your rice grains as they're small and multiply rapidly.

If you notice little brown bugs in your flour, cereal, grain or rice, those are called weevils. Weevils have been known to find their way into the home from outside (in the form of adult beetles or moths depositing their eggs in a food source). Keep these gross bugs in check.
