Weevil

6367  Hi can you please identify this bug for me? Im renting 2 story townhouse condo ( basment and main floor). I saw multiple of these bugs both upstairs amd downstairs. Initially i thought they were lice but they didnt go away. What is it and How do i get rid of it? Thank you. From: Toronto, North york M2M 0B4 Canada

Number 6367 This is a weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). It’s overall shape is consistent with that of the granary weevils in the genus Sitophilus Click here. Check all your food storage areas for signs of infestation, and discard/destroy any items found to be infested. Keep all infestable dry food items in insect-proof containers or under refrigeration.
