Yes, pantry bugs can get into plastic bags if the bags are not properly sealed or if the bugs are already inside infested food items that are placed in the bags.

Pantry pests are most likely to infest opened food products. However, they can eat through paper, thin cardboard, plastic, or foil. It helps to keep all panty food sealed.

Consuming a pantry pest is not harmful as they are not poisonous. However, it can be stressful to have pantry bugs. Their eggs could be in your unsealed bag of cereal, droppings could be in your pancake mix, or larvae in your unsealed box of pasta so you must arrange treatment as soon as you see signs of an infestation. It is easier to see adult insects than the eggs. Look for tiny black insects, small holes in food packaging, webbing in the corners of packaging, and moths in food containers. Unfortunately by the time you realize you have an infestation, it has likely spread to other food containers.

Pantry pests can be active throughout the year, but they may become more noticeable during warmer months when temperatures are ideal for breeding and development.
