| Popis: | In a pet shop warehouse, stored food pest insects can develop in various preserved animal feeds (dog’s pasta, puffed rice, kibble). However, there is another commodity that is rarely considered, such as the organic litter which is composed of bran, flours and other residues of the screening of corn that may result attractive to the same pest insects. The purpose of this laboratory test was to evaluate the attractiveness of organic litters on Plodia interpunctella, Tribolium confusum, Oryzaephilus surinamensis in comparison with breeding substrate. The results confirmed that the test insects were attracted by the breeding substrate rather than by the organic litter. |
