Weevils are a type of insect pest. There are several different varieties of weevils, although the majority are stored product insects which means they normally enter into houses in dried foodstuffs such as rice or cereal. Rice and maize weevils will enter homes this way. Vine weevils are more widespread outside the home as they feed on shrubs and other plant life and can cause considerable harm to gardens. Vine weevils can be treated using chemical treatments in the damaged area, while stored product weevils are much more challenging to treat as they can easily infest a kitchen.
Weevils can be quickly identified as they are small beetles with snout-like heads. It is more challenging to distinguish between different species of weevil, however. Experienced pest control specialists will be able to correctly identify the weevil that is causing an infestation.
Pest control of weevils can be difficult. The most effective treatments involve cleaning the entire surrounding area inside the home and eliminating any stored food products that could be contaminated. Insecticides may also be used, although it is critical to only use insecticides that are safe to be applied around food. Weevils can breed rapidly and lay eggs that are too small to be properly taken out of stored products, so it is often more effective to simply get rid of any contaminated food products.

Brackley is a town within south Northamptonshire. It is roughly 19 miles (31 km) from Oxford and 22 miles (35 kilometres) from Northampton. Historically a market town primarily based on the wool and lace trade, it was established around the intersection of trade routes in between London, Birmingham and the English Midlands and between Cambridge and Oxford. Brackley has a permanent resident population of roughly 13,000 (2011 Census) which has increased significantly from 2,467 in 1901. The town was the location of a historically important meeting involving the barons and representatives of the King in 1215, the year of the Magna Carta. In 1602, the metaphysical poet John Donne was elected as MP for the Brackley constituency. Brackley is near the Silverstone racing circuit, and features some industry related to Formula One racing, particularly the Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team which is located within the town, plus the Force India F1 team which operates a wind tunnel on the old site of the north railway station. On the east outskirts of the town is H. Bronnley & Co., makers of hand-made soaps who hold Royal Warrants of Appointment for supplying Queen Elizabeth II and the Prince of Wales. The Brackley Morris Men are one of only 7 ‘traditional Cotswold’ Morris dancing sides remaining in England and the only 1 to survive in Northamptonshire. Their history dates back to the 1600s when a solid silver communion plate was given to the parish. The plate that is still in the possession of St Peters Church is dated 1623, and is inscribed with the names of seven men, whom local folklore believes to have been the morris dancers.
