Larval and pupal development of Galleria mellanella were studied at 25, 30, 35 and 40°C each with 30, 50 and 80% relative humidity. In addition effect of two diets i.e. Haydak and 2 years old Apis mellifera comb pieces was also provided at these temperature and relative humidity levels. For larval development, temperatures of 40°C was found unsuitable and Haydak diet was proved more suitable as compared to 2 years old A. mellifera comb pieces. Pupal development was faster at higher temperatures whereas same at three humidity levels.
