This is not really a pest of foodstuffs,
but somewhat of a specialist, for it is often found in wine
cellars where the larvae gnaw holes in the corks.
They thrive particularly in damp cellars, feeding on the mould
growing on the walls and on the wine corks, and what is worse
they can live in mouldy corks. The debris produced by their
activities can be seen hanging from the corks, often covered
with the wine which has seeped out of the bottle. "Now
I'm sure I had a bottle of Bollinger '53 here somewhere". |
