First I had to throw away the frozen food, now the flour...

Due to the hurricane I had to dump refrigerator/freezer stuff in the garbage 2 weeks ago - today it was the flour and cereal, etc. I had regular flour, bread flour, rye and whole wheat. Weevils. It had been years since I've had this problem. So I just got back from the store to replace it all and I've already read on this forum that it's best to put it in the freezer. I hate to take up that much room but if I must I will - any better solutions out there? Now I've got to clean out everything to make sure nothing else is affected. I keep all that stuff in hard plastic containers, but obviously it didn't work this time. I probably got infected stuff from the store. I thought maybe if I put the containers into large ziplock bags and added a couple of peppermint lifesavers, individually wrapped, maybe that would help? Or just put it in the freezer for a couple of days to kill what might be in there?
