Grain Beetles

Grain Beetles are smallish beetles that love grains.  Also known as weevils, these small brown or reddish pests usually enter the home attached to a food item. They often enter the home through infested goods where they then start to spread to everything you own.  Grain Beetles are notorious for being difficult to control but Greenbug offers a simple solution.
