Answer:

A silo is a structure for storing bulk materials. Silos are used in agriculture to store grain or fermented feed known as silage.

Measures to keep silos free from rodent - infestation :

1. Place the silo in a covered area and on a pallet to avoid contact with moisture. Ensure it is away from direct heat and sunlight.

2. Dry clean grain to less than 13% moisture for cereals and less than 10% for pulses and oil seeds.

3. Clean and dry the inside of the silo.

4. Insert a burning candle in the silo to use up all oxygen to ensure all pests die. Do not open the silo for 30 days to ensure all living organisms die.
