Home Remedy: Keep Rice Insect-Free Naturally for Months

• Home remedies provide a safe, chemical-free method to prevent insect and moth infestations in stored rice.
• A key remedy involves creating a bundle containing turmeric, salt, cloves, and black peppercorns.
• To prepare, place 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp salt, 10-12 cloves, and 10-12 black peppercorns in a tissue, then tie it securely.
• Place the prepared bundle(s) in a dry, tightly sealed rice container to keep rice fresh for months.
• The remedy works by using the pungent aroma of spices to deter insects, turmeric's anti-fungal properties, and salt's moisture absorption.
