If there are many insects in the rice, you can also use phosphite zinc and organic acid to fumigate them. The specific method is as follows: On the balcony or in an idle room, put the infested rice together with the bag in a well-sealed plastic bag, i.e., the fumigation bag, and then put a cup or bowl in the fumigation bag with 50 grams of vinegar in it; if the grain does not exceed 500 kilograms, wrap one gram of zinc phosphide in paper and put it into the cup or bowl of vinegar. Do not stir it and seal the mouth of the fumigation bag immediately. Sealing it for 5-10 days will kill all the pests inside. After that, let the gas dissipate for 2-3 days, remove the vinegar water and the residue.

If there are not too many infested rice, you can put the infested rice in a plastic bag, tie the bag tightly, and put it in the freezer of the refrigerator. Take it out after 48 hours. This can kill the borers in the rice.
