Use of diatomaceous earth for the management of stored-product pests (2014, background): “Arthur (2002) reported that on wheat treated with DE, survival of Sitophilus oryzae increased with increasing RH, and this effect was evident both in the initial survival of S. oryzae and the number of F1 adults.”
Effect of the combined use of Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschinkoff) Sorokin and diatomaceous earth for the control of three stored-product beetle species (2006, background): “This species is considered as a DE-susceptible species (Fields and Korunic, 2000; Arthur, 2002).”
Evaluation of methoprene alone and in combination with diatomaceous earth to control Rhyzopertha dominica (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) on stored wheat (2004, background): “Also, R. dominica is less susceptible to DE than most other stored-grain beetle species, including S. oryzae (Fields and Korunic, 2000), and can require higher rates or longer exposure intervals for control (Arthur, 2002).”
