I have a little tip. If you put noodles, rice and flour in the freezer for 2 weeks, you will never get these little critters. I'm trying it out now myself. My friend says it really works. :DOriginally Posted by Rosyhf
I make my own bread and I have a 25 lb bag now but it's not the fabric one. I wish I knew...anyway, even if we stock up rice, beans, flour because of coming shortages....weebles will get in the stuff....it happen to my rice all the time. I think the egge come with the rice and just hatch later....

I bought one of those in 1978 and I still use it, keeps the crackers nice and fresh. :-DOriginally Posted by Marilyn Philips
Reminds me of the old metal Premium soda cracker can that I still keep my crackers in. I don't think they have used these in many years and I wouldn't part with mine.

I bake bread twice a week and store large amounts of different flours. I seal them in plastic bags with 3-4 bay leaves, freeze them for 2-3 days, store in a dark, dry place and have never had a bug of any type. I have flour that is 4 years old and still makes very fine bread. I try to get Amish flour when I can as it is more pure and less fine and makes better bread. You can do the same for beans. Oh yes, label and date so you can rotate, I take from the back and store from the front.

Yup you just have to warm it up before using! :-DOriginally Posted by purplefiend
I always store my rice and flours in the freezer. It kills the bugeggs and they don't hatch. I use whole wheat flours and have found that storing it in the freezer prevents it from going rancid.
