4. Store Food Properly
Use airtight containers for grains, flour, and dry goods. This keeps pests out and prevents hidden infestations from spreading.

5. Use Bay Leaves
Bay leaves are a natural weevil repellent. Place a few inside your food containers and sprinkle some crumbled leaves in the corners of your pantry.

6. Freeze Susceptible Foods
Freeze dry goods like rice, flour, or oats for at least 48 hours before storing them. This kills any eggs or larvae that might be present.

7. Regular Inspections
Check your pantry regularly for any signs of weevils. Rotate your food stock and keep the space clean and free from crumbs.
