This volume summarizes and analyzes recent developments in the use of extreme temperatures - both high and low - to protect stored grains, to control urban pests, and to keep pest populations below economically damaging levels in both greenhouse and field environments. These tactics have become more important due to the loss of key fumigants and the potential for reducing pesticide residues.
