Abstract The control of arthropod pests of stored grain in Belgium is described. Twelve species were recorded, with Sitophilus granarius, Tyrophagus sp. and Tribolium confusum being the most common. Preventative, physical, genetic, biological and alternative control methods are outlined. The basis for chemical control is described and pesticides available in Belgium for the control of stored products pests are listed. Formulations and application methods are given and the persistence and stability of active ingredients are discussed.
