Resumen
Descripción
The present study showed how the construction of a grain silo prototype can be used to increase the mortality rate of the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.). The silo prototype is a bin of small dimensions, adequate for laboratory environments, equipped with controlled temperature for the mass of wheat stored therein. Adjusting the temperature and the time of exposure in the bin may be an effective tool to eliminate R. dominica. .
