FLOUR experts?

  1. We've just got rid of them - flour was actually moving - aaargh. Cleared whole cupboard and disinfected it all. Just buy enough flour for what you are using at the time. Don't store it in open packets - put it in a plastic containers. They also get into other foods like dried noodles ( don't ask how I know - yuck!) and dog biscuits etc.

  2. I find this thread extremely mite-ist. I will be writing a stiff letter to the Guardian about it, you may be sure.

    Mites have rights!

    My kitchen's a tip and I don't ever get them. Therefore I deduce you're cleaning too much.

    ^^^ I'm going to check when I get home, but I suspect that my kitchen is in a similar state - tidy, but not so clean :)
     
  13. Apparently there are two types of weevils,
    big ones and small ones.
    The smaller ones are even said to enhance the flavour of your bread,
    so some people don't bother chucking the flour.
    It really is the lesser of the two weevils.....:D
