  • PESTS of STORED PRODUCTS a 'Pest of Stored Products' Can Refer To
    PESTS OF STORED PRODUCTS A ‘pest of stored products’ can refer to any organism that infests and damages stored food, books and documents, fabrics, leather, carpets, and any other dried or preserved item that is not used shortly after it is delivered to a location, or moved regularly. Technically, these pests can include microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria, arthropods such as insects and mites, and vertebrates such as rodents and birds. Stored product pests are responsible for the loss of millions of dollars every year in contaminated products, as well as destruction of important documents and heritage artifacts in homes, offices and museums. Many of these pests are brought indoors in items that were infested when purchased. Others originate indoors when susceptible items are stored under poor storage conditions, or when stray individual pests gain access to them. Storage pests often go unnoticed because they infest items that are not regularly used and they may be very small in size. Infestations are noticed when the pests emerge from storage, to disperse or sometimes as a result of crowding or after having exhausted a particular food source, and search for new sources of food and harborage. Unexplained occurrences of minute moths and beetles flying in large numbers near stored items, or crawling over countertops, walls and ceilings, powdery residues below and surrounding stored items, and stale odors in pantries and closets can all indicate a possible storage pest infestation. Infestations in stored whole grains or beans can also be detected when these are soaked in water, and hollowed out seeds rise to the surface, along with the adult stages of the pests, and other debris.

  • Folk Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Medicinal and Other Uses, Folklore, and Nature Conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3
    Ulicsni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies.

  • Insects Limited, Inc. Quinn Kelley
    Insects Limited, Inc. Quinn Kelley Do-It-Yourself Low Oxygen (Anoxic) Treatments Now Available Through Insects Limited pre-sized FlexiArt enclosures, while larger objects such as furniture can be sealed in pre-sized FlexiCube enclosures. Custom sized enclosures are available upon request. An electronic oxygen indicator gives a real-time reading to verify if the oxygen concentration in the enclosure is at an acceptably low level. The electronic indicator can be seen through a clear window of barrier film that is built into each AnoxiBug enclosure. Oxygen scavengers come standard with the AnoxiBug systems but nitrogen and argon can be used in the enclosures as well if that is preferred. Hanwell’s systems are inexpensive, safe, quick, and simple. The AnoxiBug system will allow museums and organic food companies Insects Limited is proud to announce that we have just to have a realistic, yet successful, treatment option for recently partnered with Hanwell Solutions out of the their needs. We, at Insects Limited, are extremely excited United Kingdom to supply affordable and effective about this new opportunity. solutions to pest issues using anoxic (low oxygen) Click here to watch a video of an AnoxiBug treatment: treatments. Since 1982, Insects Limited’s history of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nw96bDRsH0g researching, developing and manufacturing pheromones and trapping systems for insects in a global marketplace has always had a focus on being environmentally friendly. With this new product line, Insects Limited continues to move forward in that direction while continuing to offer pest solutions that work. The low oxygen enclosures, known as AnoxiBug, are perfectly designed to be used in museum or organic food settings.
