DID YOU KNOW?
About Stored Product Insects
Hidden Hitchhikers – SPIs often arrive in your home or business inside packaged food, spreading unnoticed until numbers grow.
Wide Variety – There are over 100 species of insects that can infest stored food products, with moths, beetles, and weevils being the most common.
Rapid Breeders – A single female stored product moth can lay up to 400 eggs, which hatch into larvae that feed directly on food products.
Food Wasters – SPIs don’t just eat food, they contaminate far more than they consume, making products unfit for human or animal use.
Business Impact – In commercial settings like bakeries, warehouses, and food production sites, SPI infestations can lead to serious financial losses and legal issues if not professionally managed.

Frequently asked questions
Q: What are stored product insects (SPIs)?
A: SPIs are pests such as beetles, weevils, and moths that infest stored food products like flour, cereals, rice, pasta, dried fruit, nuts, and pet food.
Q: How do SPIs get into my home or business?
A: They often arrive inside packaged food from shops or suppliers. Once inside, they can spread quickly to other products in cupboards, pantries, or storerooms.
Q: Can I get rid of SPIs myself?
A: Throwing away infested food helps, but SPIs can hide in cracks, cupboards, and equipment. Professional treatment ensures both adults and larvae are eliminated to prevent re-infestation.
Q: Are your treatments safe around food areas?
A: Yes. We use professional, targeted treatments suitable for food-handling environments, and our technicians will always advise on any safety precautions needed.
Q: How can I stop SPIs coming back?
A: Store food in airtight containers, keep cupboards clean and dry, and rotate stock regularly. For businesses, ongoing monitoring and professional inspections are the best prevention.
