    Bugs in Grain

    Hearing of lots of bug problems in grain. Not a problem so far for my farm. What about you guys? My wheat is all on air so was not worried but I am hearing still can be a problem.

      Freeze the bins at -20C, all if any should be dead. Their eggs are in all grain, but need warm grain to hatch.

              Too bad hasn't been cold enough to get the grain well below 0 yet this year.

                      Used to fight with insects on my father's field couple of years ago. It was a real disaster for us. https://pestcontrolhacks.com/ Nicholas told us how to solve this problem on his blog. We found a lot of useful tips about pest control there.

                                  I like bins full to the brim, no worries about summer storms blowing them away.
