Why is it easy to get insects if the soy sauce is not covered well?

Soy sauce has a lot of salt in it, and if you don't damn it, it will only cause the water to evaporate and not bring bugs.

The phenomenon of soy sauce insects is caused during the use of soy sauce after it is opened. The latest scientific research has found that the two antennae on the body of the sauce flax fly can help the sauce flax fly quickly find foods with high protein and amino acid content. Soy sauce of good quality is rich in amino acids, and the soy sauce remaining in the cap and body of the soy sauce during the use of soy sauce after opening will easily attract soy flax flies.

The so-called worm is likely to be a "sauce flax fly", just look at the name to know the love of soy sauce, the older generation once said that the better the quality and fragrance of soy sauce, the more it will attract this "sauce flax fly"; Generally speaking, the summer in the south is hot and humid, and the probability of soy sauce being insected by soy sauce flax flies is higher. However, in the case of a suitable climate and environment, whether it is north or south, sauce flax flies will produce insects when they encounter soy sauce.

Sauce flax fly. Everyone should remember to buy products from regular manufacturers, because the soy sauce of regular manufacturers will be filtered by ultra-fine membranes and instantaneously sterilized at ultra-high temperatures, and it is impossible for eggs to survive and exist.

To prevent soy sauce insects: wipe the bottle mouth clean after using soy sauce, close the bottle cap in time, and store the refrigerator if possible. Because as long as there is a little gap, it will attract the sauce flax fly to smell the aroma and come to produce worms, and the larvae of the sauce flax fly will crawl into the soy sauce bottle along the gap.

At present, the phenomenon of soy sauce insects commonly found is produced during the use of soy sauce after it is opened, because after the soy sauce is opened, the rich flavor of soy sauce is easy to attract flies in the environment to bite and produce insects.

Some of the answers upstairs mention that flies "lay eggs" are not entirely accurate, there are many types of flies, among which there is a kind of fly called "sauce flax fly", which likes to bite sauce products (soy sauce, soybean paste and other fermented foods), which is why the name of the sauce flax fly has the word "sauce". The sauce flax fly has an "ovoviviparous" mode of reproduction (refers to the development of young eggs in the mother's body, and the insects are produced directly when the mother gives birth). This is also the reason why the soy sauce has not been opened for a long time and no eggs have been seen, but raw worms have been found.

Is it possible that the manufacturer's lax control during production caused the soy sauce itself to carry fly eggs and hatch into adults? This argument is untenable: first, the average salinity of soy sauce is 15%, which is a high-salt environment compared to most insects, and the eggs of ordinary flies cannot survive and hatch in the high-salt environment of soy sauce.

However, the larvae directly produced by the "sauce flax fly" can survive and grow in a high-salt environment, and the growth and reproduction rate of the sauce flax fly is very fast, if the unopened soy sauce itself carries the larvae, consumers can obviously find it with the naked eye when buying soy sauce; Second, regular manufacturers will have ultra-fine filtration and high-temperature sterilization processes in the production process, and the possibility of foreign or living objects in the finished product is extremely low.

Soy sauce will have insects because it is not sealed well, resulting in the reproduction of eggs, because soy sauce is mainly fermented from soybeans and flour, which is not only rich in amino acids, but also has a special umami taste, which is very easy to attract flies to lay eggs. Soy sauce is not stored properly after opening, attracting flies to lay eggs on the bottle cap, and when the bottle cap is closed again, the eggs will fall into the bottle and hatch into maggots.

Why there are insects is mainly to understand the main content of soy sauce, the main content of soy sauce is soy protein, and soybean protein will be spoiled and insects will be born.

There is a high probability that there is a residue on the mouth of the bottle, and the soy flax fly, which is extremely sensitive to amino acids and protein elements, smells and directly produces maggots, resulting in raw insects in soy sauce.

Because soy sauce is mainly fermented from soybeans and flour, it is not only rich in amino acids, but also has a special umami taste, which is very easy to attract flies to lay eggs. Soy sauce is not stored properly after opening, attracting flies to lay eggs on the bottle cap, and when the bottle cap is closed again, the eggs will fall into the bottle, so that bugs will be born.

The reason for the "soy sauce worms" is that the flies lay eggs, but after scientific experiments, it was found that this conclusion was not completely accurate, and the main cause of the sauce insects was the soy flax flies that used a special "ovoviviparous" method, and their reproduction methods caused them to produce worms directly around the mouth of the bottle that possessed the soy sauce.

It is not uncommon for soy sauce to breed maggots, which is usually caused by improper storage at a later stage. Soy sauce products themselves have a certain amount of salt, which is a nutritious fermented food, and if it is not properly stored in summer, it is often conducive to the growth and reproduction of fly organisms. Most of this is due to contamination by flies.

Soy sauce is rich in protein, and if a flying insect lays its eggs in soy sauce, the eggs absorb the nutrients in the soy sauce and quickly give birth to adult worms.

Some time ago, some consumers reported that there were insects in the soy sauce at home. Ms. Wang from Xinyu, Jiangxi Province, recently bought a bottle of soy sauce of a well-known brand, and after using it for less than a week, a large number of live maggots appeared in the bottle, and the picture could not bear to look at directly. After a careful inspection of the trademark, it was found that the expiration date had not expired and the lid was closed.

According to the manufacturer, this will occur when the temperature is too high in summer.

From the popular science knowledge seen on the Internet, there is a high probability that the soy sauce that has been kissed by flies will have worms, especially a fly called the sauce flax fly, which can directly produce larvae, so if the soy sauce bottle cap is not covered or not wiped clean after use, it is easy to attract insects!

Soy sauce is a good food quality, and insects will be produced after a long time, which is the reason for storing it for a long time. I'm afraid I don't have it.

This indicates that there are eggs in the soy sauce.

Experts said that in hot weather, it is not uncommon for condiments to breed maggots, and they all have the same characteristics, almost all of which are caused by improper storage after opening the lid and using it.

In fact, not only soy sauce, but also other condiments such as rice vinegar, aged vinegar, seasoning sauce, kimchi, etc., can also cause insects in the hot summer. The occurrence of insects in soy sauce indicates that the soy sauce has been fully fermented and brewed, and if it is a prepared soy sauce, it is generally not easy to attract insects.

There is an old belief that a green vegetable with raw insects is a sign that it is not pesticide-free and is safer than a perfectly looking dish. This theory is very loose, pesticides do not guarantee 100% free of insects, and different pesticides may target different insects. I looked at the 6 bottles of soy sauce that we have at room temperature at home, all of which have been opened and brewed, but the taste is different (light soy sauce, steamed fish juice, etc.), and they belong to 3 brands, and 3 of them have no preservatives.

Well. None of them are currently insected or spoiled. Whether or not insects are not necessarily related to preservatives, preservatives are mainly antibacterial and fungal.

If there are insects, it may be that the soy sauce itself was not properly checked during processing, and the eggs were mixed in, which can be discussed with supermarkets and manufacturers, or it may be improperly stored, and it has become food for insects without sealing after use. Preservatives give the food industry more room for development, but also provide people with a lot of convenience, the normal use of qualified preservatives is harmless to the human body, common preservatives can be quickly metabolized out of the human body. Without preservatives, the packaged biscuits, pastries, and snacks in the supermarket are basically impossible to make, and how painful it is to eat without snacks......However, it is not good to eat too many snacks, not because of preservatives, but because of excess calories, especially too much sugar ......

Remember to adopt it.

In hot weather, it is not uncommon for soy sauce to have insects, but they all have the same characteristics, that is, almost all of them are caused by improper storage after opening the lid and using it. So how do you avoid soy sauce worms?

1. Garbage packing: Garbage should be packed in plastic bags, do not stop the first book for a long time and leave it in one place, and do not let flies contact to lay eggs.

2. Keep the kitchen clean: try to keep the kitchen dry, and eliminate the garbage and sanitary dead corners in front of and behind the house, inside and outside the unit in time.

3. Do not touch high temperature: Do not put soy sauce next to the gas stove and contact high temperature, otherwise it will be easy to deteriorate.

4. Hold the bottle cap tightly: After using the soy sauce, it is best to wipe the bottle mouth with a rag, close the bottle cap tightly and place it in a cool, ventilated and dry place.

5. Can be stored in the refrigerator: If possible, especially in the case of continuous high temperature in summer, the soy sauce can be stored in the refrigerator, please do not place it on the window sill that can be exposed to the sun, too long or exposed to the sun will affect the quality of the soy sauce.

If you don't understand, you can rush to see if there are any insects in your soy sauce, and then according to the above content, place the soy sauce in a cool place, clean the house, and try to avoid the occurrence of soy sauce insects.

The main raw material of soy sauce is soybeans, although there are links such as brewing, drying, pressing, and filling, which may be contaminated with bacteria. However, these links have strict sanitary conditions, the cleanliness is very high, and the probability of flies or insect eggs in the production environment is almost zero.

Experts say that flies have a tendency to sugar, vinegar, ammonia, fishy smell, etc., and can lay eggs normally if they are provided with water, protein, or amino acids. Soy sauce is rich in amino acids, which attract flies and also attract flies to lay eggs.

In summer, the temperature is high, often above 30, and there are many flies. The presence of bugs, that is, maggots, in the soy sauce may be such a scene. A fly ran in through the window and smelled the strong fragrance wafting from the cap of the soy sauce bottle, and then took a closer look, there was a small drop of soy sauce on the cap, and seeing that there was no one around, the fly quickly flew over to enjoy his delicious meal.

If the cap of the soy sauce bottle is not closed properly, or if there is residual soy sauce at the mouth of the cap, it will provide an opportunity for flies to take advantage of it. Some consumers see bugs in the soy sauce, but in fact, it may be that the bugs around the bottle cap have fallen into it when the bottle cap is opened.

First of all, we should find out why soy sauce or other condiments appear insects, the reason for this, most of them are due to being polluted by flies, in fact, not only soy sauce, other condiments such as rice vinegar and aged vinegar will appear similar to "maggots", especially under high temperature conditions, consumers have improper daily storage methods, and the rich soy fragrance attracts moths and flies to adsorb and lay eggs, which may evolve into the so-called "maggots" in 6-24 hours, and when the bottle cap is opened again, the maggots that were originally attached to it fall into the bottle. At the same time, mosquitoes and flies will also leave a large number of germs and parasite eggs on the bottle cap. If people eat such food, they can easily contract diseases and affect their health.

On the one hand, the soy sauce is more fragrant, the content of amino acid nitrogen is high, and the salt content is relatively low, so special attention should be paid to the closed storage of light soy sauce; In addition, the following methods can also be effective in preventing it:

1.Household garbage should be packed in plastic bags, do not stay in one place for a long time, and do not allow flies to come into contact with eggs to lay eggs.

2.Try to keep the kitchen dry, and eliminate garbage and sanitary dead corners in front of and behind the house, inside and outside the unit in a timely manner.

3.Spray some pure vinegar in the kitchen and flies will stay away.

4.Drying the residual tea leaves and burning them in the toilet or by the smelly ditch can not only repel mosquitoes and flies, but also remove odors.

5.If possible, especially in the case of high temperature in summer, you can store soy sauce in the refrigerator, please do not place it on a window sill that can be exposed to sunlight, as leaving it for too long or exposed to the sun will affect the quality of soy sauce.

6.In order to avoid the contamination of flies and ensure the health of the family, in addition to condiments, it is best to place the washed dishes and chopsticks and other utensils in the disinfection cabinet, and if there are no conditions, it is also best to cover them with a gauze cover.
