I have a lot of rice and took bags to the bathtub, stayed up for hours while my wife and son slept. every time they would come to the top and climb up to the top of the bag, i would tap the bag and have them fall into a container. When I had a bunch, I would tap it into the toilet and flush after a while. I did this for hours. I vacuumed and wiped-out cupboards and drawers, spent the following day throwing some food items and transferred good items to zip-lock bags. Instead of throwing out the rice though, I put it in a pot with a lid, into the oven at the suggested 180F for 15 minutes , I dunno which website wrote that info but still on my stove-top, with the lid still on, a weevil crawled up to the top of the rice. Well, I put it in at 300F for 30 minutes. I think because I had a large quantity of rice in my biggest pot, the heat didn't reach the center, the first time. I don't have a method for easily separating the dead weevils from the rice, there's so many, I just plan on rinsing them out as I use the rice. They are so small and seem like clean-ish and harmless bugs, compared to what I hear about cockroaches, dirty cockroaches who shi* everywhere. But here I am. a day after the big-clean. Woke up and killed 3 more rice weebles. I am not too worried, I killed hundreds the day before. Maybe thousands...

best thing to do with rice,flour and cereals and other grains is to freeze them for a few days sift them.then use o2 absorbers and vacuum seal them. bugs are in everything we eat so no sense in throwing the food away. anything you cook will kill whatever critter there is anyway.

Future bags will spend some time in the freezer immediately before use to see if that does it without keeping them in it for good.

Adult rice weevils are capable of penetrating through food packaging and can invade through very small gaps in box folds. You can always inspect packages for any holes, and if a package is see-through, you can move the product around and see if there are any weevils inside. However if you're dealing with a large infestation we do recommend you throw away such packaged foods before you start cleaning/treatment in order to ensure total elimination.

Either rice with loads of pesticide laden, or naturally and unavoidably have some weevils eggs. Choose one

Note: Weevils are in many grain foods when you purchase them in the form of EGGS. If you destroy the EGGS before storing you won't have a problem with them in your packages if sealed properly. Some people put them in the freezer for at least 3 days. You might try to microwave about 2 pounds of dry goods (rice, beans ECT) at a time for about 20 or 30 seconds. I have done this but not enough time has past to see how well it works. My thinking is the EGGS get destroyed in the microwave. Has anyone else tried this microwave idea? .

Not the best advice in this video. To throw out your entire pantry is absolutely insane, and do you really want to use chemicals where your store food? Yeah, yeah, it’s safe once it’s dry, or doesn’t cause harm to humans, but who’s telling you that? The chemical companies. When have they ever lied before? Anyway, what I’ve done in the past is move everything into thicker sealable bags. If weevils are in there, they now stay in there assuming it’s properly sealed. I’ll then take those bags and rotate them through my freezer for a few days, but when I pull them out, the bag stays sealed and the food stays inside. If there were weevils they are now dead and can be rinsed, washed or strained out. Now you don’t need to money out the window. Once everything is in bags pull everything out you pantry, clean, and spray surfaces with straight vinegar. Personally, I just let it dry on surfaces. To keep from having an issue again, anything new you buy put into a sealable bag and freeze for a few days and then move to pantry.
