Beetle Control in Haringey: what we see locally
Stored product beetles live in dried foods such as flour, rice, grains and spices, and usually arrive in an infested packet.
Haringey's grocers and bakeries, especially along Green Lanes, West Green Road and Tottenham High Road, sell large quantities of dry goods, and households often buy rice, flour, bulgur and pulses in bulk. A single infested bag can spread beetles through a whole kitchen.
We treat homes and food businesses, helping you find the source and treating cupboards and storerooms.
Where we find beetles in Haringey
- Kitchen cupboards: Open packets are the usual source.
- Grocers and bakeries: Bulk dry goods can be infested.
- Bulk food bags: Large sacks can carry beetles.
- Pet food: Often overlooked.
- Restaurant dry stores on Green Lanes: Bulk rice, flour and bulgur stored for weeks can harbour beetles unnoticed.
