You need to get rid of everything that is infested with bugs, ie cake mix, flour products, cereal, bread, sugar, etc. Get rid of any opened packages as well as any that are not sealed. Clean out the entire cabinet, wipe down the inside of the cabinet thoroughly (I use a mixture of chlorox and water).
Make sure any food that is stored in the pantry is in sealed packages that the insects have not perforated or in glass jars or plastic containers with tight-fitting lids.
Having bugs does not mean you are unclean. The bugs come in with contaminated food you have brought home. I've even had bugs chew through plastic wrappers like cake mix. If you buy flour in paper bags, make sure to put it into a safe container. Anytime you open a package and do not use the entire contents, put the remainder in a sealed container.
