You can get weevils in beans. They will destroy what you have saved of there are any weevils in them. Some people put the dried beans on the freezer for a few days. Supposedly this kills the weevils. I just put the dried beans in a gallon sized ziploc type bag and store that in the freezer.
There are several ways to keep out weevils. One is to put a bayleaf into a sealed container with them. You can also mix DE in with them. DE is non poisonous and easily washed out before you cook the beans.
