Weevil Pest Control
Often categorized as "pantry pests," weevils enjoy feeding on all sorts of products found in your pantry--and even outside of it. Some of the weevil's favorite foods include rice, pasta, cereal, nuts, corn, flour, seeds, cotton, bread, and more. Adult weevils also like to snack on fresh fruits. Dried flowers are another favorite meal for the weevil as well.
One of the big problems with weevils is that they are great at flying, so they can move into your home and from food source to food source quite easily. These pests can eat up your wardrobe or chow down on your favorite dry wreath. Finding them in your bowl of cereal is no fun, either.
Professional pest control is the best bet once a weevil is spotted. The female weevil is capable of laying anywhere from 300 to 600 eggs, which can grow into egg-laying adults themselves in less than one month. It is easy to see why such an actively reproductive pest as the weevil must be controlled and completely removed quickly.
A pest control expert will likely advise you to immediately clean out any cabinets or closets where weevil activity has been observed. Enclosing infected foods in sealed plastic garbage bags is important, so the weevils won't get out and fly back into your home before garbage day. Vacuuming the home along all its cracks and crevices--where weevils like to live and lay eggs--is also a good idea.
Once this is done, a professional pest control team can spray the home for weevils and also set traps. At this point, you will be well on the way to winning the war against weevils.
