Abstract

The actual chemical control of harmful species from Coleoprera Order is acceptable only in some and very limited situations, and inacceptable in the majority of cases. This, from the point of view of residual toxicity, in the present and future, the development of the not-chemical means of protection are strongly necessary. The paper presents a synthesis of present status of knowledge about these not-chemical means of agricultural stored products protection, and its perspective in the future.
