Insects found in farm-stored grain can include those that feed directly on the grain, referred to as primary pests, and those that feed on grain that is damaged or is going out of condition, referred to as secondary pests. Knowing the identity of insects found in stored grain is critical for determining whether control is needed and what methods would be management practices in preference to the use of off-farm inputs, taking into account that be used to control insects that exist in stored grain. Before storing Aerosols containing pyrethrins, with or without a synergist, applied as thermal 'fogs' or mist-sprays ('cold fogs') were previously the treatment of choice in stored-grain pest control but cheaper alternatives are now more often used. Various synthetic contact insecticides can be used in aerosol formulations and one compound, dichlorvos, can be This page contains the information about the stored grain pests and their control.
