Merchant grain beetles will infest cereals, corn starch, rice, rolled oats, sugar, candy, dried fruits, dried dog and cat food, and many other types of food. These beetles are capable of breaking into most packing material just by chewing through them. Merchant grain beetles can also repopulate very quickly. The adults will crawl and fly through out your home or business in search of more food. The beetles will also start living in the cracks and crevices they find through out your home. If you find these insects in your food it is very important to first dispose of the product. Then you should check in any thing else to make sure that they have not infested others. After you do this, it is time to resort to an insecticide of your choice because the adults could be hiding in other areas of your kitchen and home. It is very important to treat any area that you feel they could be living so that no other foods in your home or business are infested.
There are several options that Pest Products Online has to offer when it comes to exterminating merchant grain beetles. There are options in liquids, dusts and an aerosol form.
Liquids can be best when trying to exterminate beetles because the liquid can easily be sprayed into the cracks and crevices that they could be laying their eggs in. Liquids can be sprayed almost anywhere; such as baseboards, window sills, cabinets and into any crack or crevice. Liquid insecticide is safe to be sprayed at most places as well; such as, schools, hotels, restaurants, food manufacturing areas and of course your home. The liquids we offer also leave a residual effect to prevent any more beetles from entering your home or business in the near future. Most of these liquids are safe to be sprayed around children and pets, but to be safe do not let either come into contact with the liquid until it has dried completely.
Dusts are another great option when eliminating the merchant grain beetle, especially around food areas. Dusts are generally safe for use in residential areas, commercial establishments; such as grocery stores and mills, or sensitive facilities; such as schools or hospitals. Dusts also have the benefit of leaving no fumes and little to no odor. Most of these dusts have the convenience of a residual effect, so that you do not have to keep treating the same area repeatedly. Dusts should be spread in any crack and crevice as well as cabinets and drawers as long as the product states that it is safe. Pest Products Online offers dust spreaders to make your job easier and safer.
There is also one aerosol option that Pest Products Online has for the merchant grain beetle. It comes in a foam form and can easily be sprayed into any crack or crevice of your home. It also leaves a residual effect so that any beetles that you missed will have the effect later.
Pest Products Online also has many options for those who like to “go green” when choosing your beetle exterminator.
