In this study, we evaluated the insecticidal effect of nitrogen against (L.), (L.), (F.), (Horn), Jacquelin du Val, and (L.). Four trials were conducted in chambers containing flour in bags or sacks with >99% nitrogen level. Adults of all the above species, as well as immature life stages (eggs, larvae, and pupae) of were used in the trials. Our results showed that nitrogen caused high mortality for all species and life stages tested. Some survival was recorded for and pupae. Low progeny production was recorded for , and . In conclusion, our trials indicated that a high nitrogen environment can provide satisfactory control of various primary and secondary stored-product insect species.
在本研究中，我们评估了氮气对赤拟谷盗（Tribolium castaneum (Herbst)）、杂拟谷盗（Tribolium confusum (Jacquelin du Val)）、谷蠹（Rhyzopertha dominica (F.)）、米象（Sitophilus oryzae (L.)）、谷象（Sitophilus granarius (L.)）和锯谷盗（Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.)）的杀虫效果。在装有袋装或麻袋面粉且氮气含量>99%的试验箱中进行了四项试验。试验中使用了上述所有物种的成虫以及米象的未成熟生命阶段（卵、幼虫和蛹）。我们的结果表明，氮气对所有测试的物种和生命阶段都造成了高死亡率。锯谷盗和谷象的蛹有一些存活记录。米象、谷蠹和杂拟谷盗的后代产量较低。总之，我们的试验表明，高氮环境可以对各种主要和次要的仓储害虫物种提供令人满意的防治效果。
