What Are Weevil Larvae?

Weevil larvae are the immature, worm-like stage of several beetle species, most notably the grain, rice, and flour weevils. These pests are notorious for infesting stored food products, including grains, cereals, nuts, and seeds. Because weevil larvae feed and develop inside food kernels, infestations often go unnoticed until the damage is significant. According to the National Pest Management Association, early identification and intervention are crucial for effective weevil larva pest control. You may spot tiny, white grubs when pouring out dry foods or notice hollowed grains and a fine powder residue left behind.

Signs and Risks of Weevil Larva Infestation

A weevil larva problem often reveals itself through visible larvae or adults in food containers, a musty odor in pantries, or the discovery of damaged or powdery grains and seeds. Left untreated, a single weevil infestation can quickly spread, contaminating large quantities of food and creating costly waste. Immediate weevil larva pest solutions are essential, as some species can lay dozens of eggs in a matter of weeks, accelerating the infestation cycle.
