REMEDY

Burn or otherwise dispose of infested food, remove all debris and thoroughly dry out the areas where the mites occur. The most important treatment is temperature and humidity control. This can be supported by an acaricidal treatment where appropriate. Preferably use a trained pest control professional, with experience of stored product pests.
