Why do those tiny worms get into old flour, corn meal, corn starch?!
I've had flour in my cabinet that wasn't opened yet, but was past the expiration date!. Thought it was ok to use!. After scooping some flour out, noticed it had tiny worms throughout the flour!. My friend said they're "born in there", or has something to do with the flour being in a warm cabinet!. She suggested I keep the flour in the refrigerator!. Can anyone help!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Weevils, etc are in most milled products!. You don't have to keep them refrigerated but freeze for 1-2 hours after bringing them home!. This kills them off and doesn't allow them to grow!.
Airtight containers (zip bags or containers) help prevent any outside contamination later!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because the larvae were already in the package!. It is not ok to use, since you will be eating the worms, the eggs still in the flour, and the worm excrement as they are surviving and eating their way thru the food!.
If the food is contaminated, it won't do any good to keep it in the fridge!.!.!. It came that way from the mill!. If you want to keep your sugar, flour, cornmeal, etc safe from bugs keep it in airtight containers in your cabinet, or but large ziploc bags and put the bags you bought in them!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

the moth or bug !?!?!? laid eggs in the bag
It may have been in the warehouse,, the grocers, or in your home!.!.
Never leave these products in their original paper bags!.!.
I use old 3lb coffee cans painted to look Petty
Tupperware and Rubermaid are equal!.!.
Do this with all your dry staple goods pasta rice sugar salt
One box (1lb) of corn starch fits into a large peanut butter jar!.
Five lbs of sugar fits in a 3lb coffee can!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't know why it happens but you can prevent by storing those products in the freezer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Ive had the same problem, and ive tried ziploc bags and containers- they didnt work!. Flour in fridge or freezer definatley works best!. When i used to work at a pastry shop thats what they did too!Www@FoodAQ@Com
