Methoxychlor has proven
effective in control of cad
dies, gram weevils, confus
ed flour beetles, saw-toothed
beetles, rice weevils, and
other insects affecting stored

solution may be mixed at
the rate of two quarts of
methoxychlor to five gallons

Usually two gallons of the
mixture will cover 1,000 sq
feet of surface.
New gram should not be
