Stored Grain IPM Use Notes
Effective stored grain insect management starts before grain goes into storage. Sanitation, aeration, monitoring, and proper grain management all play an important role in reducing insect pressure.
As part of a stored grain IPM program, consider the following practices:
- Clean empty grain bins and storage areas before filling.
- Remove old grain, fines, and debris where insects can survive.
- Clean grain-handling equipment such as augers, conveyors, combine headers, and transport equipment.
- Monitor insect activity with traps or grain sampling.
- Follow aeration schedules appropriate for your region and stored commodity.
- Use Insecto only according to the product label.
Insecto can support stored grain protection programs by adding a residual dust treatment option alongside good sanitation, temperature management, aeration, and insect monitoring.
