Combat flour moths in baking ingredients

In order to avoid that flour moths are brought into the kitchen with baking ingredients (nuts, oatmeal, muesli, etc.) or dried fruit, the following tip:

Depending on the size of the bag, allow the bought bags to be irradiated at the highest level in the microwave for 1-3 minutes. All eggs or larvae are thereby killed. Before maybe remove metal closures! If you are unsure about the duration, it is better to try it for about 1 min., Otherwise the plastic might melt.
