Abstract
Adults of Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) penetrated polyethylene sheets (0.0635 mm thickness) coated with protein-enriched pea flour solution (water pH 8.5–9.0) at 0 (control), 1 and 5% levels, but did not penetrate the sheets coated with a 10% concentration. The potential of using protein-enriched pea flour in the manufacture of insect-proof factory impregnated plastic sheeting is discussed.
