What should I do with the rice that has insects?

1.Put pepper. Wrap the peppercorns in a cloth or paper towel and put them in a rice jar or rice bag to prevent the rice from being eaten by insects.

Because, Sichuan pepper can not only be used as a seasoning for cooking, but also a natural antioxidant with a special fragrance and insect repellent effect. This method also prevents the rice from being infested by insects. Once the chili peppers are set, tie the rice bag tightly and place it in a cool and ventilated place.

Although the taste of chili peppers is special, it does not affect the texture of the rice.

If you use a rice bag to fill the rice, you can soak the rice bag in boiling chili juice for 10 minutes and dry it before filling the rice, which also has an insect repellent effect. If you want to get rid of rice worms, exposing rice to the sun will not kill rice worms. On the contrary, it will backfire and seriously affect the taste of rice.

In fact, the correct thing to do is to place the infected rice in a cool, ventilated place, let the rice worms crawl out on their own, and then sift it.

2.Add the garlic. Rice worms are not strange and are a natural phenomenon.

In general, there are two reasons: one is that when the grain is still in the field, it carries the eggs of the rice worm. First, prepare a few cloves of garlic, peel them and put them in a rice bowl.

You can pour the rice into the rice jar and put some cloves in it every once in a while. The smell of garlic will make rice worms stay away.

In fact, there is another chemical method called industrial pesticide. At present, phosphine circulation fumigation, a chemical method with low cost, fast insecticide and good effect, is widely adopted by the grain sector and most grain enterprises. First, put a certain dose of aluminum phosphide into the grain depot and seal it for more than a week.

Aluminum phosphide when exposed to the air will emit highly toxic phosphine gas, which directly kills pests.

Also, if there are bugs in the rice, you can put fresh ginger in the rice to get the bugs out. Or put the rice in a cool place to dry, let the insects fly away or crawl out, and the rice with insects can be eaten after the insects are removed. Do not expose the rice to sunlight.

Actually, if the bugs are not too serious, the rice can be eaten. Generally, the insects born from rice are relatively clean and free of viruses. As long as it is disposed of and the rice is washed, it can still be used normally.

There is no need to throw away the whole bag of rice just because there are a few rice worms in it.

The insects that grow in rice are generally the following: rice elephants (rice drills), sawsaw thieves and red grain thieves. If there are insects in the rice, if it is not serious, you can spread the rice in a cool place, and the insects will crawl out on their own; If there are too many insects and the rice has become moldy, it is recommended to dispose of it and not eat it.

Spread the rice in a cool place, flattened and thinner. Then the worm will crawl out on its own. If you can't climb out in time, take it out with your hands.

After the insects are cleaned, put the rice in a large plastic bottle or bucket and seal it as tightly as possible. Or put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.

In the future, I bought the new rice and treated it like this, so as not to give the conditions for the insects to grow. In this way, the rice will not have worms.

Rice has the highest starch content, followed by protein. In general, rice does not grow insects and becomes moldy (a large number of molds). Because the water activity value in rice is very low (i.e., very little water), and the presence of water is required for the growth and development of mold and eggs.

Low water activity values, molds and eggs do not absorb water. When the water activity value increases after moisture, mold and insect eggs will absorb the water in the rice and then decompose and apply the nutrients in the rice.

Put a few cloves of garlic in the middle or at each end of the rice bag, or wrap some peppercorns in a cloth or paper and place them in a container for rice. Usually the jar or bucket where the rice is stored should be cleaned to prevent the pupa of the winter from hiding inside. Once the rice worms are found, the rice can be dried in a cool place to let the worms fly away or crawl out, and the rice with raw worms can be eaten after being dewormed.

Do not expose rice to the sun. /

It can be handled in the following ways.

1. Put the rice in a plastic bag and put it in the freezer of the refrigerator for 24 hours, rinse the rice with water when eating, the frozen insects will float on the water, and you can cook the rice after washing it several times.

2. Put the rice in a clean bag or plastic bag, spread it out, and dry it in a cool and ventilated place to let the insects crawl away on their own.

3. You can also use a dustpan to pick out the insects, that is, the rice is turned upside down in the dustpan, and the insects will go out. Or sieve the rice with a special sieve, and the insects and their excrement will be sifted out.

How to prevent rice from getting insects in summer?

1. Oxygen-free preservation method: first put the rice to be stored in a ventilated place and spread it out to dry (note that it should not be exposed to the sun) to dry thoroughly, and then put the rice into a plastic bag for food with less air permeability, tie the bag tightly, and put it in a cool and dry place, so that the rice can be stored for a longer time.

2. Zanthoxylum pepper insect prevention preservation method: Zanthoxylum pepper is a natural antioxidant with a special fragrance and insect repellent effect. The specific method is to put 20 to 30 peppercorns in the pot, add an appropriate amount of water (it is advisable to soak the rice pocket) and put it on the stove to cook the fragrance of peppercorns, and then remove the pot from the fire, put the rice bag into the pepper water and take it out after it is wet, and after drying, pour the rice into the pocket.

In addition, wrap a few small packets of peppercorns with gauze, put them on the top, middle and bottom of the rice bag, tie the bag tightly, and put the rice bag in a cool and ventilated place to prevent rice insects.

1. Rice that is not seriously insects after 24 hours need to be put into the freezer layer of the refrigerator together with the packaging in time, and then taken out after at least 24 hours. After low temperature, the insects have been frozen to death and turned red and black, and when they are washed with water, the insects will float up, and the taste of the rice will not change when eaten. 2. Dry in the shade, keep the rice and wait for the "worms" rice worms, many people's first thought is to expose the insects to the sun, you can dry the insects to death, let the rice dry again, and there will be no worms.

In fact, this practice is very wrong, and the insects will burrow deep into the rice and come out again after turning around. In addition, the taste of rice after exposure to the sun will be greatly reduced due to water loss. The right thing to do is:

Keep the rice open in a cool and ventilated place, wait for the insects to crawl out, and then kill them all. 3. You can use gauze to pack garlic, spices, and peppercorns into a rice box, and try to put them all around. It was found that the allicin in garlic, some substances in the herb and pepper can have a good fumigation effect on rice worms.

But this method can only be used in the early stage of rice worms, if you can't eat it in a short period of time, it will definitely grow like crazy, I have already tried it. 4. Liquor sterilization method Find a bottle to fill with liquor, open the bottle, put it in the center of the rice, the bottle mouth is higher than the rice surface, and then seal the rice bag and rice cylinder. When the liquor is placed in a rice bag, it will volatilize ethanol, sterilize and disinfect the rice box, and prevent insects from being in the cradle of incubation.

Finally, I want to tell you an even more devastating truth. Rice worms are not limited to rice bags and wheat, but also inhabit dried fruits and cotton fabrics. And when you find that there are rice worms, if you don't stop them in time, the place at home will quickly flood!
