Red bugs in kitchen -PLEASE HELP (glass, ducts, plastic, buy)

[debalina55]

I'm having these small bugs in kitchen. They are all over the floor. Even on a sealed container, I can see these are present. Not sure how to get rid of it. Please help

Something is infested, check your grain products, pet food, etc and pitch it all out. Then clean and put everything in glass jars with a screw on lid.

If you Google/search- "red flour beetle" you'll find everything you need to know. No hand holding!

Check any bags of flour, tortilla mix, cornmeal, that kind of thing. You might just want to throw them all out and buy fresh, then buy some plastic tubs to store them in.

There's no pesticide that you can use in your food, and these bugs are living in the food, so you just have to throw out whatever food has the bugs.

OP, they look like what is known as drugstore/cigarette/bread/biscuit beetles.

Whatever you do, don't use pesticides. Clean out the infested foods. Period.
