Weevils in My Stored Food

RE: Weevils in My Stored Food Post By Danii (Guest Post) (03/05/2008) Hey, i think my horse feed bins have weevils? But they are the tiniest white things and they do move, what are they?? How do i stop from getting them and are they harmful if the horses eat them? Report Spam or Abuse Theyre everywhere, but are the weevils? Post By Tori (Guest Post) (07/26/2007) The first time i saw them they were in the bird food, we threw that out. Now they are in the cereal, cookies, flour, and all over the house. They are in the upstairs bathboom, the carpet, the ckitchen floor, even on the walls every once in a while. ARE THEY A TYPE OF WEEVIL?

This kills any eggs that you have brought in from the store.This method has worked well for me with flour, dry cereal etc. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Weevils in My Stored Food Post by toni k.
