I discovered i have weavles in my cupboards...I threw out all flour & sugars etc.etc. & scrubbed the cupboards down. But I looked today & there are some in there again. How can I get rid of these things for good???

my mom said bay leaves will keep them away she put them right in the flour and sugar and kept them in sealed containers. good luck they can be a pain.

Keep everything like flour, sugar, baking soda, etc. in air-tight containers. I know that sounds like a pain, but it works. Also, I keep my flour in the freezer. Spices already come in containers, so you're good there. Baking soda comes in a cardboard box. It's best to put it in a ziploc bag or some other container. You can keep the baking soda in the box, but put the box in another container.
Sorry for your problem. I know it's a hassle. I've never had that problem, but I have heard that it can be very costly!

spray and store all of your food products in plastic containers with tight lids or zip loc bags. toss out any dry products that are open or thet have been in the cupboard for a while, as the weavels lay eggs in the seams of the boxes, wash all cabinets down with bleach. there is no guarentee of getting rid of them for good, but this all helps. I actually had to change grocery stores years ago, as soon as we got rid of the weavels, we shopped and had them back. the store was infested.
the bags would prob. be cheaper and you can get 2 gallon sixe that will hold most cereal boxes
