Prevalence and abundance of stored grain insect pests in four varieties of pulses i.e. Lens culinaris, Pisum staivum, Cicer arietinum collected from two markets of Dhaka city were recorded. Nine species of insect pests, viz. Sitophilus oryzae, Tribolium castaneum, Callosobruchus chinensis, C. maculatus, Rhizopertha dominica, Oryzaephilus surinamensis, Liposcelis entomophila, Sitotroga cerealella, and Formica sp., were recorded throughout the study. The percentage of weight-loss was higher (7.54) in those pulses which were highly infested by pests. Highest pest population was observed during May to June (753). However, Sitotroga cerealella were found only in November to December of the study period. The maximum species richness (7) was observed in Green gram and Chickpeas samples, but the minimum species evenness was observed in Green gram (0.6969) and maximum in Red lentil (0.9886).

Stored Grain Pests

The Indian custom of placing metallic mercury with the grain in the storage container to prevent infestation by insects has been investigated. It is found to have a sound scientific basis as the presence of mercury prevents the reproduction of certain of these pests.Experiments showed that the vapour of mercury was fully effective in preventing reproduction of the grain weevil (Calandra granaria), the saw-toothed grain beetle (Oryzaephilus surinamensis), the lesser grain borer (Rhizopertha dominica), and the Angoumois grain moth (Sitotroga cerealella).Zinc and tin amalgams and calomel were less effective than metallic mercury.The efficiency of a given weight of mercury is increased by subdivision, a process which increases its total surface area.
