उत्तर

  1. Let the grain dry in the sunlight. The harsh sunlight does not allow eggs and caterpillars to grow in the grain.
  2. Keep dried neem leaves in the container in which the grains are stored. Neem acts as a repellent for insects.
  3. Grains like beans are smeared with mud. The mud particles keep the weevils away from infesting the grains.
  4. The place where grain is stored should be cool and dry. It should be airy. The chances of insect infestations are less in such storage places.
