Malathion 50, quinalphos 1.50, methl parathion 20 and fenvalerate 0.40 each at 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 g/kg seed proved better than endosulfan 40 and carbaryl 50 in protecting the seed from natural infestation of Trogoderma granarium (Everts) (Oermestidae : Coleoptera) during storage. Carbaryl 50 was found to be least effective against T.granarium (Everts) during wheat seed storage. However, all the treatments of insecticidal dusts were significantly superior as compared to control.
