Weevils are a kind of insect pest. There are numerous different varieties of weevils, although the majority are stored product insects which means they frequently get into homes via dried foodstuffs such as rice or cereal. Rice and maize weevils will get into homes in this manner. Vine weevils are more common outside the home as they feed on shrubs and other plant life and can cause significant damage to gardens. Vine weevils can be handled using insecticides in the afflicted area, while stored product weevils are much more challenging to take care of as they will easily infest a kitchen.
Weevils can be quickly identified as they are small beetles with snout-like heads. It is difficult to distinguish between different species of weevil, however. Qualified pest control specialists will be able to correctly identify the weevil that is creating an infestation.
Pest control of weevils can be challenging. The most effective methods involve cleaning the entire surrounding area inside the home and the removal of any stored food products that may be contaminated. Insecticides can also be used, although it’s crucial to only use insecticides that are safe to be used around food. Weevils can breed very quickly and lay eggs which are too small to be properly removed from stored products, so it is often better to simply dispose of any contaminated foods.
