Put bay leaves in your grain containers and flour.

Those are grain weevils. I had them in my Pastina until SuperKat told me what to do. Chat Icon

amazing! i always wondered about this.
I thought it was from leaving them in your cabinets for too long. is that true?
my mother used to get these all the time, i don't.

bay leaves? where, do you open the box of pasta and put into a rubbermaid, then put the bay leaf in?

Actually, you really should contact the store you bought them from because many times they come their shelves and they need to know so they can clean their shelves off. I only buy pasta in plastic now.
