High-intensity microwaves have a clear insecticidal effect during sterilization, but it also affects food quality (Vadivambal et al., 2007). Low-intensity microwave radiation (LIMR; 2.0 kW/kg) was used to kill T.castaneum during storage and inhibit mold due to it have claimed that little effect on food quality (Vadivambal et al., 2007; Wang et al., 2003; Zhao et al., 2007). UV treatment has not effective in inhibit the microbes effectively due to the lack of penetration and strong dependence of distance from the UV source (Fine and Gervais, 2004; Sharma et al., 2009; Song et al., 2009).

Owing to public fear and the legal regulation for the products treated by irradiation or those containing any irradiated ingredients, irradiation is unpopular in some countries.
