Abstract Rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae), a major storage pest, cause both qualitative and quantitative losses of stored grains. Normally, chemical insecticide along with fumigation is practiced for the management, but it creates health hazards. So, this study investigates the effects of temperature and duration of exposure on rice weevils. Completely

Effects of the alarm pheromone on Triatoma pallidipennis behaviour
T. pallidipennis performs behavioural acts in response to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. T. pallidipennis shows a repellent response when exposed to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. Isobutyric and propanoic acids can be used as repellents of T. pallidipennis. Abstract Adults of some Triatomine species,

β‐Cyclodextrin/eucalyptol inclusion complex for improved postharvest date moth control
Powder or pellets of CD/eucalyptol solid inclusion complex immersed in water showed promising efficacy in controlling fifth instar larvae of Ectomyelois ceratoniae. Therefore, this strategy should be considered for the development of non‐toxic natural pesticides.
