Default Weevils...

We had weevils in the kitchen years ago.Ours came out of a rather old bag of
flour left at the back of the cupboard. The live in any dry goods containing
flour,granary type stuff such as crackers etc.To get rid just have a good
clean around,throw out and suspicious flour or grain based products.
More info at http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/2000/2088.html. Good hunting,

The only real solution is get a pest control person in, you need to
identify them before you know how to get rid. The kitchen is a
difficult area because you don't want to use poisons because of the
implications to you. I had what I thought were Pharaoh ( a nightmare
to get rid of) but they turned out to be book mites and very easy to
eradicate. You could have something a simple as silverfish which
love damp - so get rid of the damp and they go.

P.S. the pest guy I called only charged me £15!

to eradicate them?
