Control of Earth Mite Shows Lindane Viable Alternative
In field tests, 1 oz per acre of lindane controlled red legged earth mite as effectively as 2 lb DDT per acre in pas tures with control within a week. Lindane costs about 20 times cheaper than DDT per acre, per Assistant Entomologist Mr Erlich.
