Sitophilus granarius

I noticed them before the grain soak.

I thought the larvae were gnats at first, but I have perfectly fine pf jars sitting right next to these jars. I scratched my head for a while because the grain jars have polyfill filters, and the pf jars have nothing but holes and dry vermiculite.

Definitely no gnats in my grains.

Weevils and fungus gnats are the adult stage of two different types of insects.

Its because the larvae is in your rye bag. If you still have that bag of rye, give it a week or two and the fuckers will all be hatched and eating your rye.

I've had it happen a couple times because I use cheap bird seed. They aren't gnats, they are weevils.

And they aren't an issue until they start hatching because they will wander out of the bag and youll find them in your house. I'd take any rye left over and soak it/pc cook it now before they do hatch.

For the record I've used birdseed that was absolutely infested in weevils. If you looked into the bag the whole thing was moving. i pced it and used it as spawn as usual. A 2 hour pc cycle killed them all and the myc loved colonizing their corpses. extra nutes :thumbup:
