The kitchen and pantry can be a breeding ground for common pests (weevils, beetles, ants and moths) because there not always the cleanest place in the house. Sugar, flour, oats and other dried foods are often spilled and these things attract bugs. The first thing to do is remove all dried food stuffs from the pantry and kitchen. Throw away items that have been infiltrated and give the shelves a detailed cleaning. All dry goods including cereals, flour, sugar, rice, pasta etc. should be stored in thick walled containers with tight-closing lids. Standard maintenance like cleaning the pantry regularly, not purchasing bulk bins dried foods and using pantry pest traps will help avoid panty pests.
