Oh Rudy, I've Got The Solution For You...

Misc.

This is the solution. I have read that it is a old tale but I find it works really well for me:

First throw out all grains that it may be in and wash out your pantry really well.

Next, buy new grains and put a bay leaf in each box or bag once it is open.

You will never see another bug as long as you live. I swear!!!!

I had a really large grain weevil problem in my apartment in brooklyn in 1991. I finally read an article in Vegetarian Times about organic extermination situations. They said to put a bay leaf in every box and bag. They were right. I haven't seen one since. I have a lot of different grains and flours in my pantry and not one in the refrigerator and I haven't seen one in years. Try it. You will not see another bug!! You will succeed!!!!!

Try it. You'll be a happy woman.

Trust me, RisaG
