we have a weevil problem

we have pantry moths or weevils in our pantry
and i think its a bad infestation :(

anyways, mother in law and i agreed that the pantry needed cleaning out and we needed to fix the weevil problem.
- my solution to the problem, clean out the pantry, take all the food and crap out, soap, wipe down and throw out infected foods.
- mil solution, take all the food and crap out, clean pantry and spray it down with mortein!!!! then put food and stuff back in [yeh right!!!]

basicaly i told her 'NO' - we are not going to spray our pantry with mortein then put our food back there [seriously - are you crazy?!! she thinks its completely harmless] then again my mil sprays her indonesian servant's hair with mortein when they first arrive in their indo house, this is to get rid of lice, bugs and other 'shit' that live in the poor girls hair.

anyways 2.5 hrs later and after many tense conversations - the job is done.
we have a SHIT LOAD of opened packaged foods that arent sealed properly and probably attract the bugs.
[ i blame mil - i think she blames me, since i live here most of the time - she prolly thinks im a grot]
anyways a CRAP LOAD of food stuffs get thrown out [mostly MILS] she aint happy
well ... i told her she better start sealing her food properly after she opens it [not impressed with me]

too bad i dont care... im not the one with the bad habit of buying herbs and stuff, using it once, then put it away unsealed, forget about it, then buys another packet, use it once and put it away unsealed again!
this happens sooo many times i have a habit of throwing crap out when she leaves.

seriously you should see my fridge before and after she leaves - oh wells that's another days worth of ranting and raving

xxoo
