Grain weevil

Grain weevil

6000   Hi, I was finally able to get a good picture of the bugs that were in the rental we moved into .   You mentioned that they were most likely weevils but the pics were blurry … would you mind looking at this pic and , if possible , narrowing down the type ??  Thanks again for your time.

This does indeed look like one of the grain/granary weevils in the genus Sitophilus, see http://tinyurl.com/hl8fkt9 for an example. You should check all food storage areas where you keep dry food items (including bird seed), especially seeds of wheat, rice, or corn (maize), for signs of infestation.  Ed Saugstad, retired entomologist; Sinks Grove, WV.
