Pantry pests, also known as stored product pests, are insects that infest and contaminate food stored in your pantry. In Florida’s warm and humid climate, these pests can be especially troublesome, thriving in the conditions of your kitchen and pantry.
Effective control of pantry pests involves both prevention and treatment strategies:
Regularly inspect your pantry for signs of infestation. Check food packages for damage and contamination.
Store dry goods in airtight containers to prevent access by pests. Keep your pantry clean and free of spills or crumbs.
Dispose of infested food items immediately. Clean shelves and pantry areas thoroughly to remove any eggs, larvae, or debris.
Effective control of pantry pests involves both prevention and treatment strategies. To eliminate pantry pests, you can either discard infested products or use alternative methods to kill the pests, such as placing the contaminated items in the freezer for up to four hours or heating them in the oven at 130°F for 30 minutes (if the product can be placed inside the oven). Additionally, regular cleaning of storage areas and using airtight containers to store dry goods are crucial in preventing future infestations.
