I wonder what bug is in mung beans? 15

I don't know if it's true or not, but it's pretty much the same as you said.

Rice borer. Pests of rice. It belongs to the order Lepidoptera. The common species in China are: the three borer, the brown edge borer, the two borer, the Taiwan rice borer and the large borer of the family Noctuidae. The three borer, the two borer and the big borer are the historically large pests of rice.

In China, the three borers are mainly distributed in rice areas south of 37° 38° north latitude. The two borers were distributed in all rice areas of the country; The giant borer is distributed in the south of the Yellow River; Taiwan rice borer is distributed in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, and Taiwan; It is distributed in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Guizhou and parts of Fujian. The three-insect borer is monophagous, only for the sake of harming rice; The other four species are also harmful to the white of the cocoon, sugarcane, sorghum, corn, millet and wheat; The big borer also feeds on plantain and coconut. The three borers (Fig. 1), the two borers (Fig. 2) and the large borer (Fig. 3) all occurred in 2 7 generations in 1 year. Brown-edged borer in 1 year and 4 generations in central China rice area; Taiwan rice borer in the vicinity of Guangzhou 1 year 4 5 generations.

The number of generations of each borer gradually decreased with the increase of latitude and altitude.

Improper storage methods or long-term non-use.

Method: It can be exposed to the sun, live insects will crawl away, and the insects hiding in the beans can only be killed by boiling, and there is no harm to the body.

You can also put the mung beans with the raw worms in the refrigerator freezer with the bag to freeze all the bugs to death. When washing mung beans, all the bugs float on the surface of the water and are easy to rinse off.

Of course, you can also put mung beans into the box, flush them into boiling water and blanch them, pay attention to stirring evenly, you can kill the eggs within half a minute, dry them after taking them out, put them in a container, and cover them tightly with a lid.

Cause of long worms: The eggs of mung bean elephants are laid on the surface of the tender pods, and after becoming larvae, they burrow into the pods and then into the bean grains, eating the beans, and the surface of the beans only has black spots the size of needle tips. As a result, there are almost no signs of insect moth on the surface of the beans.

The larvae develop and grow in the bean kernel and gradually become a pupa, bite a small round hole under the bean seed coat before pupation, and become a worm when the conditions are suitable, and fly to the field or the corner of the room to lurk for winter. In the following year's flowering season, eggs are laid again to reproduce, which harms the legumes.

Mung bean elephants not only harm mung beans but also broad beans, lentils, peas, soybeans, adzuki beans, etc. Not only can it lay eggs in the field, but it can also be bred in warehouses under suitable conditions.

Prevention of mung bean weevil:

1. Boiling water scalding method:

Put the mung beans into a basin, rinse with boiling water, pay attention to stir the mung beans while brewing, if there are insect eggs, they can be killed in about 30 seconds, take them out to dry, put them in a container (you can use a clean drink bottle after drinking), and cover the lid tightly. Blanched mung beans do not affect consumption and do not affect germination.

2. Vegetable oil stirring method:

Sift the mung beans clean and dry them first, add an appropriate amount of peanut oil or cottonseed oil and stir well, so that the surface of the mung beans is evenly covered with a layer of oil, so that the insects cannot lay eggs on it. The eggs that have been laid are surrounded by oil, which causes the original material in the eggs to stop moving and solidify, and the eggs and larvae can be killed within a few minutes.

1. When the mung bean is still in the ground, it carries the eggs of pests. After being processed by the grain factory, it still sticks to some mung beans. And the eggs are so small that they are not visible to the human eye at all. In the summer, the climate is warm and humid, which is suitable for the growth of insects, and the eggs will hatch into small insects.

2. Infected insects during storage, some insect eggs are hidden in containers, wall cracks, ground cracks, it is difficult for people to remove them, when there are mung beans at home, the climate is suitable, these insect eggs hatch out, if the mung bean storage is not sealed, there will be small flying insects into the mung bean to lay eggs, worms.

Mung bean is a relatively common ingredient, often can be made into soup and porridge to drink, delicious, nutritious, many food service materials may have some problems when storing, mung beans may see some bugs, bugs need to be removed to be safe to eat, so how to deal with bugs in mung beans?

2. Soak in boiling water

Pour the mung beans into the vegetable basket, soak them in boiling water, and stir constantly, hold for 1-2 minutes, then rinse them with cold water, and then spread them out to dry, the high temperature can also effectively repel insects.

3. Boiling water

Rinse the mung beans with cold water first, then spread the mung beans evenly in the steamer, steam and cook for 5 minutes, and then take them out to dry. This insecticidal method damages the germ, so the treated mung beans should not be left with seeds or raw mung bean sprouts.

4. Frozen insecticide

Put the mung beans with the bag in the freezer layer or freezer of the refrigerator, freeze them for 24 hours and take them out, and all the bugs in the mung beans will freeze to death. After taking it out and storing it under natural environmental conditions for a period of time, the frozen insects will dry up, and the insects will float on the surface of the water when washing mung beans, which is easy to rinse clean.
