Integrated Pest Management for Feed & Animal Nutrition Facilities

High ingredient throughput, warm conditions, and fine ingredient dusts support insect development. FSS delivers monitoring-based IPM focused on prevention, early detection, and corrective action that keeps facilities inspection-ready and protected.

Stored Product Insect Control

FSS identifies and controls flour beetles, warehouse beetles, Indian meal moths, and other feed-mill insects, with species identification, root-cause analysis tied to ingredient handling and dust accumulation, and targeted long-term population suppression.

Finished Feed Protection with Diacon®-D IGR

Diacon®-D IGR, a dry (S)-methoprene formulation, disrupts insect life cycles and prevents reinfestation in pelleted and premix feeds, pet food, and birdseed.

  • Long residual protection against stored product insects
  • EPA tolerance exemption
  • Stable under high heat
  • No withdrawal period, treated feeds may be fed immediately
  • No finished-package labeling required when applied for pest control

Applied at about 1/3 lb per ton of finished feed as part of a Feed/Food Safety Plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pests affect feed mills and animal nutrition facilities?

Feed mills and animal nutrition facilities face stored-product insects and rodents drawn to bulk ingredients, spillage, and finished feed.

How do you protect bulk ingredients and finished feed from insects?

We combine sanitation and exclusion with monitoring and targeted treatments, adding fumigation when needed to protect bulk ingredients and finished feed.

Is fumigation safe for feed ingredients?

Phosphine fumigation aerates off treated commodities and leaves no significant residue when applied and cleared per the label, so it is widely used on feed ingredients.

Can you build a program that fits continuous production?

Yes. We design programs around continuous operations, scheduling work to fit your production and keep feed protected.
