Moth pest research. Chemist (left) and technician monitoring the distribution and movement of Indianmeal moths (Plodia interpunctella) in a model warehouse as part of an infestation study. The larvae, a type of waxworm, are a common grain-feeding agricultural pest found around the world. In this test, the effects of different light colours and durations are tested on moth development, movement, and reproduction.
