Provide sufficient aeration during late age rearing and bring down moisture level to 60~65%. Use Resham Jyothi bed disinfectant as per recommendations or Vijetha supplement or 2% Dithane M45 in Kaolin (3rd day of IV age and 2nd & 6th day of V age). Dust slaked lime to shoot rearing bed and avoid feeding of tender leaf with high moisture.
