Beetle Control in Tower Hamlets: what we see locally
Stored product beetles live in dried foods such as rice, flour, lentils and spices, and usually arrive in an infested packet or sack.
Many Tower Hamlets households and businesses, especially around Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Poplar, buy rice, lentils and spices in bulk, and a single infested sack can spread beetles through a kitchen or storeroom. We help you find the source and treat cupboards and stores.
We often find beetles in the bottom of large sacks of basmati rice, atta or lentils kept in kitchens and storerooms for weeks. In restaurants, a single infested delivery of spices or flour can affect a whole dry store, so we check deliveries as well as shelves.
