AbstractExposure of adult rusty grain beetles, Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens), saw-toothed grain beetles, Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.), and red flour beetles, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), to filter papers treated with the organophosphorus insecticides malathion or chlorpyrifos-methyl often affected offspring production in survivors. Groups of five male and five female survivors were placed on ground wheat at 30°C and C. ferrugineus and O. surinamensis adults produced fewer offspring with prolonged exposure to chlorpyrifos-methyl; malathion had no effect. Tribolium castaneum adults produced significantly more offspring with increasing exposure to both malathion and chlorpyrifos-methyl indicating stimulation of oviposition or a selection for increased fitness in survivors.

Three insecticides were tested for efficacy against adult red flour beetles on painted and unpainted steel plates. Microencapsulated formulations of chlorpyrifos and diazinon provided 100% control for 47 weeks on both painted and unpainted surfaces. A lacquer-based formulation of chlorpyrifos was not as effective and could have been affected by paint. These findings have importance in the control of stored product insect pests on painted metal surfaces, including the decks of naval vessels.
