How to prevent rice flour worm?

Put a few cloves of garlic in the middle or both ends of the rice bag, or wrap some peppers in cloth or paper and put them in a rice container. Usually, the rice storage tank or barrel should be cleaned to prevent cordyceps pupae from hiding in it. Once you find Mi Chong, you can dry the rice in the shade and let the bugs fly away or climb out. The rice with insects can be eaten after it is removed. Don't expose rice to the sun.

There are other ways:

Method 1: Dry the moisture in fresh garlic skin, break it into petals, put it directly into a rice jar and bury it deeper and shallower. This method can also be used to prevent mung beans from being infected by insects.

Method 2: Prepare a few clean small gauze, each gauze is wrapped with a little pepper seed, and then put it in rice. If the rice is packed in rice bags, you can soak the rice bags in the boiled pepper juice for 10 minute, and then put them into the rice after drying, which also has the function of preventing insects.

Method 3: Put dried kelp or dried orange peel in rice to prevent moisture and mildew at the same time.

If there are bugs in the rice, you can put fresh ginger in the rice to drive away the bugs.

In addition, you should take it out to bask in the sun on sunny days.
