L'étage intermédiaire, ne comportant pas de matériel particulier à part quelques nettoyeurs, se trouve entre l'étage des moteurs et l'étage de pesée. On y trouve rarement des accumulations de résidus de grains, car l'étage est réservé aux cellules de stockage du grain qui sera pesé à l'étage de pesée. L'étage de pesée est celui où se trouvent les balances. L'intérieur des balances de même que les surfaces environnantes présentent des saillies et des obstructions où peut s'accumuler la poussière favorable au développement des insectes nuisibles. Certains de ces endroits sont difficiles d'accès et peuvent facilement être oubliés pendant le nettoyage. 1, record 5, French, - %C3%A9tage%20de%20pes%C3%A9e
