Is it okay to eat rice with worms? How to prevent rice with worms?

　　How to prevent rice worms

　　Here are some ways to prevent rice worms.

　　1. Use lime to prevent rice insects. Spread some quicklime on the bottom of the rice container, put a plastic sheet on top, then put the rice in, and cover the container tightly to prevent insects.

　　2. Liquor prevents rice from getting insects. Because the volatile ethanol in liquor has insecticide and sterilizing effects, it can prevent rice from getting insects. Put a clean bottle filled with white wine into the rice storage container, with the mouth of the bottle higher than the rice surface, without a lid, and then cover the container tightly to prevent pests.

　　3. Garlic prevents rice insects. Put a few cloves of garlic scattered in a rice storage container and cover the container tightly, which can also prevent insects.

　　4. Zanthoxylum bungeanum prevents rice from getting insects. Wrap some peppercorns with several pieces of gauze, put them into a container of rice, place them in different positions on the top, middle and bottom, and then cover the container tightly. If you use a bag to pack rice, you can put the bag directly into the boiled pepper water, soak it and dry it. This will prevent insects from growing when you pack the rice again.

　　5. Kelp prevents rice insects. Because dried kelp has a strong ability to absorb moisture, it can kill insects and inhibit mold. Put some dried kelp in the rice. The ratio of rice to kelp is about 100:1. Take it out and dry it in the sun every 10 days, and then put it back into the rice tank. This method can be used repeatedly and can effectively prevent rice from becoming moldy and causing insects.

　　6. Bottled rice prevents insect infestation. The bagged rice can be put into beverage bottles separately, and it can be stored for a long time without getting pests. Rice utensils must be clean and tight. It is best to put rice in jars, altars, and buckets with tight lids. If you use a cloth bag of rice, put a plastic bag outside the cloth bag and tie the mouth of the bag tightly.

　　If you don’t want to be “surprised” when you eat in the future, pay attention to preventing rice worms.

　　Is it right to eat wormy rice? healthy influence

　　Rice contains high protein, which is beneficial to the human body. In rice protein, alkali-soluble gluten containing high lysine accounts for 80%. The lysine content is higher than that of other cereals. The amino acid composition ratio is reasonable, which is relatively close to the optimal ratio of protein and amino acids recognized by the World Health Organization. The biological value of rice protein is 77, and the protein utility ratio is 2.2 (wheat is 1.5, corn is 1.1). The digestibility of protein exceeds 90%, which is higher than other cereals, so the nutritional value of rice protein is high. If rice with such a high value becomes infested with insects, what impact will it have on health?

　　1. Affect our appetite. People appreciate beautiful things, but what about bad things? Many people choose to avoid it. Even if the rice has worms, even if it does not appear on the cooked rice, we will see it before washing the rice. Moreover, the color of the uncooked rice has turned light yellow, and part of the nutrients in it have been lost. When we eat it, there is no aroma of rice. With such a color, such a smell, and an indescribable taste, will you be happy with it? If a person is not happy when eating, he will choose to eat less. Eating less will lead to hunger. A series of problems arise from here. With so many physiological problems and physiological problems, is our health still guaranteed?

　　2. Eating worm-eaten rice lacks necessary nutrients. Rice cortex and germ are rich in protein, fat, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. During the rice milling process, as the cortex and germ are peeled off, the nutrients contained in the rice are also lost. The higher the precision of rice processing, the greater the loss of nutrients. In addition, rice will also lose a lot of nutrients during the washing process. Nutritional fortification of ordinary rice can not only replenish the lost nutrients, but also increase some nutrients that the rice itself lacks, including vitamin B1, vitamin B2, niacin, lysine, iron and calcium, etc. When insects eat rice, they usually start from the surface. So, almost all the nutrients on the surface of the rice are eaten, and how much more can enter our stomachs?

　　How to deal with rice worms

　　Here are a few comments for reference.

　　1. Release insects. Place the worm-infested rice in a cool and ventilated place, let the worms crawl out slowly, and then sift it again.

　　2. When there are many insects in the rice, use zinc phosphate and organic acid to fumigate and kill them. On the balcony or in an idle room, put the worm-infested rice and the bag in a well-sealed plastic bag, that is, a fumigation bag, and then put a cup or bowl in the fumigation bag with 50 grams of vinegar; if the grain does not exceed 500 kilograms, wrap one gram of zinc phosphide in paper and put it into the cup or bowl of vinegar. No need to stir, and immediately seal the mouth of the fumigation bag. After sealing for 5-10 days, all the pests inside will be killed. After 2-3 days of deflation, remove the vinegar water and residue.

　　3. For the insect-infested rice in the sun, it should be fed to chickens. If we find that the rice has been infested with worms for a long time, and the worms have developed to all around the rice, the rice may also have hollow and disconnected features. At this time, the rice is no longer for us to eat. We should feed it to chickens. It is good for chickens to eat worms and absorb the nutrients inside. When we usually eat chicken , if you observe carefully, you will also find that chickens walking on the ground like to eat bugs. These chickens are often more delicious for us to eat than chickens that eat mukang. In addition, chickens also like to eat rice. At this time, the two main ingredients in the rice with bugs are the chickens' hobby. The rice is not wasted, and the chickens have found their own food. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
