Abstract Nowadays, store owner are currently dealing with loss of total income as well as decrease in good stocks and grains. Heat control is favorable against grain insects and pests such as the S. Oryzae that can develop internally inside the grains. 40-50°C are considered lethal to these stored-grain insects. The extreme heat of 120° F can kill all life stages of weevil for one hour. Other studies and research conducted using gamma-ray radiation were applied to define the morality of the S. Oryzae. An eco-friendly control method, but it can cost a lot of money for small store owner. Some fumigation and insecticides to control and contain these pests, but overdoses of chemicals and incorrect use of these may harm the total quality of the grains and feed stocks. The researchers approach the idea of monitoring and controlling the infestation the Sitophilus oryzae in an ergonomic and convenient way for the pet shop and small-time store owner.
