Delaware County extension director Robert F. Hall warns a short fall corn crop requires saving all corn. He explains how stored grain pests heat the grain, create mold, and cause losses. He advises sweeping out bins, burning debris, then treating surfaces with a 5 percent emulsion spray of DDT or methoxychlor.
