Every cultivator is aware of the fact that it is not alone the crop growing in the fields which suffers from insect attacks but that insects of different kinds also do harm to stored agricultural products. It is well-known that preservation of grains, pulses, etc., for seeds and other purposes is often a serious problem among farmers everywhere. Commodities like grains, pulses, oil seeds and various dry vegetable products are the chief materials which suffer from such damage and the injury so caused is often very substantial. Farm granaries, provision and grocery depots, drug stores and flour mills are the chief haunts of these insects. It must, however, be noted that the great majority of them are quite different in their food habits from those affecting growing crops, and their activities are almost exclusively confined to stored products.
