BP, You are right about how they get in but freezing the flour for three days kills them. They get 'put to sleep' all right.

wasn't sure about freezing killing them, a lot of bugs just go to sleep when frozen then wake up when the stuff is defrosted. I assumed weevils were the same. don't think i'd like to take the chance, I still think WHOLE grains are the way to go, that's why they call it "the daily grind"!

You can buy 25 kls wheat grain from Doves farm on the net ...£17 when I bought mine, I split the sack into 5kls maylar bags with oxy absorbers, got these from Fresherpack also on the net ......placed these into plastic dust bins , I have an old corn grinder I refurbed belt driven via a 1934 lister D type engine -.....also grinds rice.....got a victorio hand grinder as backup..........I will post pics. Very soon.
