Description

The objective of this book is to describe approximately 90 major international insects and other pests that infest stored agricultural products. After a short introductory section that considers post-harvest crop losses, the types of damage done by pests, the nature of storage structures, pest types and their general systematics and biology, each pest is considered within the same framework for ease of reference and comparison. Distribution, biology, type of damage and control are all considered and an original line drawing of each pest is provided. Emphasis is laid on the simplest, cheapest and most effective methods of integrated pest control. The book is mainly concerned with insect pests, but it also discusses arachnids (spiders and mites), birds, mammals and fungi. Appendices list the pesticides used in stored products control and list the plants with natural anti-pest immunity. It may be useful for anyone concerned with minimising pest-related crop losses.
