Small grain beetle (likely sawtoothed grain beetle)

Stored-food areas, pantries, cupboards, mills, warehouses, and grain-processing facilities; commonly found in cereal products and dried foods.

Adults and larvae feed on stored grains, flour, cereals, pasta, dried fruit, nuts, seeds, and pet food, often exploiting cracked or processed products.

Usually nocturnal and secretive, hiding in food packaging and crevices. Females lay eggs in stored food; several generations can develop annually in warm conditions.

Not dangerous to people and does not bite, sting, or transmit major diseases. It is a pantry pest that contaminates and damages stored food; ecological benefits are negligible indoors.
