There a bug infestation in my kitchen and I don't think I can eat anything in my house anymore.

Dunno where else to post this :v

Normally my fear of bugs isn't so bad, like they might turn my stomach when I see one, but I'll just swat it away or pick it up on a piece of paper and put it outside.

However, when there are a lot of bugs in my house I kinda panic. One time ants decided to invade my bedroom and I put out about 10 ant baits and slept on the couch for a week until they were gone. One time I found a spiderweb in the corner of my room and I was paranoid there would be a spider in my bed somewhere so I slept on the floor 😭.

Now, there are moths and their larvae in my pantry. I found a few crawling around on the ceiling this morning and started to spiral. It turns out they often lay their eggs in tea bags, cereal, rice bags, and anything else they can chew through. My mom tried convincing me anything sealed was fine but I know that's not true.

The only way to get rid of them is to fucking deep clean my pantry, but I literally can't bring myself to touch anything in there. I'm terrified to eat anything because I feel like it's contaminated, doesn't matter where it's stored.

My mom probably thinks I'm being incredibly dramatic, but anytime I think about there being bugs in our house or in our food I feel like vomiting.
