Keep Flour Fresh: 6 Simple Hacks to Prevent Pests & Spoilage

• Flour stored for long periods often attracts insects and can spoil or develop an unpleasant taste.
• Dried neem leaves, wrapped in cloth, act as a natural insect and bacteria repellent in flour containers.
• Placing dried red chillies, cloves, or bay leaves in flour deters pests with their strong aroma.
• Storing flour in a zip-lock bag in the refrigerator prevents pest growth due to low temperatures.
• Always use a dry container and avoid wet hands to keep flour fresh for longer.
