Abstract

Adequate and balance nutrition of World human population is being a bigger problem day by day. Storage of obtained products has an importance for sustainability of human nutrition. 10% of storage products are loosed by stored products pests. In this study, physical stored products pest managements such as high and low temperate applications, low moisture grain application, using radioactive materials, ozone application, light traps and diatomaceous earth application were explained and introduced. Physical management methods can be preferred as it does not cause residues that may pose a threat to human health during product protection against harmful effects.
