Pairing Residual Contact Insecticide Use With Long‐Lasting Insecticide‐Incorporated Netting to Reduce Dispersal and Damage by Stored Product Insects

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 501-514, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Long‐lasting insecticide‐incorporated netting (LLIN) can intercept insects and has shown promise for pest management before and after harvest in agriculture. Understanding how to incorporate LLIN into existing integrated pest management (IPM) programs, with other commonly used tactics like residual contact insecticides, can significantly ...

Characterisation of Wolbachia-like bacteria isolated from the parthenogenetic stored-product pest psocid Liposcelis bostrychophila (Badonnel) (Psocoptera)

open access: yes, 2004
The widespread psocid, Liposcelis bostrychophila, is a stored-product pest of grain and farinaceous foods. Its ubiquity is in part due to its parthenogenetic reproduction which is shown to be the result of the presence of rickettsial bacteria in the ...

Chemical strategies to control psocid pests in Australian stored grain

open access: yes, 2004
In the past decade, psocids have emerged as important pests in grain storages in Australia. We evaluated the effectiveness of a range of chemical treatments including grain protectants, structural sprays and the fumigant phosphine and also investigated ...

Psocids (Psocoptera). Chapter 13.2 [PDF]

open access: yesBioRisk, 2010
Among the 231 species of Psocoptera present in Europe, 49 (21.2%) are considered to be of alien origin. Th ey include 29 exotic introduced species and 20 cryptogenic species. Most of the exotic species originated from tropical and subtropical areas, essentially from Africa. Many of them are food pests, moving along with stored products. Th irty-nine of

Efficacy of grain protectants against four psocid species onmaize, rice and wheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Psocids are emerging pests in stored products, particularly in amylaceous commodities such as grains. Currently, their control is based on the use of fumigants and contact insecticides; however, newer data indicate that psocids are tolerant ...

Moisture-dependent insects (silverfish species and psocid species (Psocoptera)) in modern buildings – a sign of hidden moisture and mould damages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Through the last 10 years, it has been an increasing occurrence and activity of moisture-dependent insects in modern buildings. Grey silverfish (Ctenolepisma longicaudata) is the most common species, but it is also an increasing number of cases of ...

Biology and Management of Psocids Infesting Stored Products

open access: yesAnnual Review of Entomology, 2014
Previously regarded as minor nuisance pests, psocids belonging to the genus Liposcelis now pose a major problem for the effective protection of stored products worldwide. Here we examine the apparent biological and operational reasons behind this phenomenon and why conventional pest management seems to be failing. We investigate what is known about the

Automictic and Apomictic Parthenogenesis in Psocids (Insecta: Psocoptera)

open access: yesFolia Biologica, 2006
Karyotypes and meiosis patterns in three obligatory thelytokous Psocoptera species have been studied for the first time. Females of Aaroniella badonneli (Danks) display 9 chiasmatic bivalents in oocyte metaphase I (2n = 18), hence meiosis is of the automictic type. Females of Ectopsocus meridionalis Ribaga and Valenzuela sp.
