Question Precooked rice bugs
Hello! I used rice bags from aldis for my current grow. I had 6 bags but 1 of them was contaminated by BUGS! I never had it happen before and I've used brand name uncle bens before. It shocked me so much I didnt even open the last bag I had. I tried googling about it but all I kept finding was rice weevils in dry rice/grain. I just want to figure out if it was my direct fault, like i missed something while sterilizing or inoculating or SOMETHING. Or, if it's like a manufacturer error and something I have to look out for...idk how but I will definitely look for it now lol Any info will be greatly appreciated.
Also. No I don't have a pressure/rice cooker. I am a small casual grower who works A LOT so unclebens and neglect tek are my current methods :)
