Les procédés physiques, comme le transilage du contenu des cellules et le tamisage du grain, permettent d'éliminer partiellement les infestations, car les insectes en mouvement et les larves sont tués par l'action mécanique. Dans l'industrie de la meunerie, le «Entoleter», situé habituellement juste avant l'équipement d'empaquetage, détruit les insectes par impact. [...] D'autres procédés physiques comprennent l'aération, l'entreposage en atmosphère contrôlée, la chaleur, le froid et les radiations ionisantes. 1, record 2, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20physique
