Looks like I have a red flour beetle infestation. Just noticed them all over my bags of grain. My supplies are low so this is definitely a good time to be able to treat my grain room. What is the best way to 1.) treat the existing pre-milled grain (10 unopened bags and about 8 opened specialty malt bags) 2.) treat the room after and 3.) stop this from happening in the future. I know that other insects surely come in on the grain...is that also the case for the red flour beetle? Should I notify my grain supplier? Should I expect them to help with the infestation? I've gotten grain from them for over 7 years and had no problems with my grain or grain storage room. We did just finish major reconstruction...could these buggers be from that? So many questions...any help will be much appreciated. BTW I would rather go with a natural method of pesticide but will do what ever needed to get rid of the bugs.
Thanks and Cheers
