Many old farmers have this feeling: "When the grain is put into storage, it is obvious that there is nothing and it is dry. Why did you say there was? In fact, there are many rice elephants in the granary, which can be roughly divided into three aspects:
First, when the crops are ripe, these pests fly to the fields, dig a hole at one end of the crops with their noses, and lay eggs in the grains. In order to absorb the nutrition and hygiene in the grain, when we put the granary into the warehouse, the insects will turn into rice elephants after a certain temperature.
The second is that our grain depot, grain loading tools and transportation tools are not clean, and these tools are stained with eggs. The original clean food was infected with insects, which made all the food infected.
The third is that the bees in the grain bags or warehouses are not tight, allowing external pests to fly in and lay eggs in them, or pile up with the grain with eggs, resulting in the whole pile of grain being infected. But what is even more curious is that the granary is dry and there is no water. How did they survive? Don't you need water all your life? If you want to know the reason, we must know its living habits.
Summary: Generally speaking, once the rice elephant is born in the grain, it means that it is humid there, which gives the rice elephant a living space. This humid environment is enough for the rice elephant to survive. There is also the special physiological state of rice elephants. Because of its small size, hard shell and little evaporation, it needs little water. At the same time, it will also create moisture for itself.
