Signs of a Stored Product Insect Problem at Home or Work

SPIs are insects that infest dried foods such as grains, flour, cereals, rice, pet food and more. Infestations often go unnoticed until contamination is widespread, so it's important to spot the early warning signs:

  • Small insects visible in dry food products or packaging
  • Webbing or clumps in flour, grains or cereal stock
  • Shed insect skins, frass (droppings) or larvae in storage areas
  • Contaminated packaging with holes, chew marks or discolouration
  • Decline in product quality or appearance of dampness in stock

Frequently Asked Questions About Stored Product Insect Control

What types of insects are classed as SPIs?
Stored product insects include species such as saw-toothed grain beetles, flour beetles, grain weevils, Indian meal moths, warehouse beetles and various mites. These pests are known to infest food production areas, storage warehouses, supermarkets, bakeries, pet food stores and more. Identifying the exact species is essential for choosing the right treatment method and stopping the life cycle effectively.
Are SPI infestations dangerous?
While SPIs are not typically harmful to humans directly, they cause food contamination, financial losses and can lead to failed audits or regulatory breaches. Infested food products are unsellable and may need to be disposed of entirely. For businesses, even a minor infestation can cause reputational damage or legal issues if not addressed swiftly.
How do you treat an SPI infestation safely?
Our treatments are tailored to the type of insect and the environment. In food environments, we use approved insecticides, fogging machines or heat treatments that are effective yet safe when applied correctly. We also advise on which stock to dispose of, what can be salvaged, and how to maintain hygiene throughout the process.
Can you help businesses prepare for audits or inspections?
Yes, we regularly support food businesses, processors and retailers in meeting compliance requirements. Our technicians provide written reports, treatment records, and recommendations to support your pest management plans, all of which can help during audits or EHO visits.
Do you offer ongoing pest monitoring and support?
Absolutely. For commercial clients, we offer tailored pest control contracts that include regular site visits, monitoring devices, and responsive support if any activity is detected. This is ideal for businesses that store food, grains or other dry goods and need to remain pest-free year-round.
