Protection of organic cereals from insect and rodent pests in a warehouse by combined use of traps and sticky tapes

Several options of protection of organic cereals (winter and spring wheat, rye and maize) from insect and rodent pests, using a combination of traps (with or without pheromone/ attractant) and sticky tapes and no chemicals, were tested in a warehouse over the summerspring season of 2019/2020.

Temperature in the warehouse was 14-29°C and humidity around 50%.
