How to store rice to prevent lice from appearing.
For those of you who regularly cook rice every day, definitely never leave the rice stock empty in the kitchen. However, you have to pay attention to how you store rice, so that it remains durable and free of lice. Here's how to store rice that you can follow at home.
1. Use an airtight container.
Store rice in an airtight container such as a glass jar or tight plastic container. This helps prevent moisture from entering and reduces the risk of infestation.
2. Make sure the rice is dry.
Before storing rice, make sure it is completely dry. If the rice is still wet, this can increase the risk of infestation.
3. Avoid storage in damp places.
Keep rice away from damp places such as kitchens that are often exposed to water vapor from cooking or places that are too close to sinks or windows that are often open.
4. Add lime leaves.
Keeping some dried lime leaves in a container of rice can help prevent the appearance of lice. Orange leaves have natural insect repellent properties.
5. Store at a stable temperature.
Avoid drastic changes in temperature, as this can cause condensation inside the container and promote the growth of fleas. Choose a storage location that has a stable temperature.
6. Check regularly.
Even if rice is stored carefully, it is still important to check it periodically. Discard any rice that looks unhealthy or may be contaminated.
7. Use silica gel.
You can also add silica gel packets to the rice container. Silica gel helps absorb surrounding moisture, thereby helping keep the rice dry.
