June counts show over 1300 flowering plants per square rod, with poisoning often fatal within hours. Measures include fencing infested areas and digging out plants to reduce exposure and deaths.

The article reports that sowing timothy may smother larkspur on mountain flats and references experiments feeding larkspur. It notes fences are being built on National Forest lands to protect dangerous areas and mentions a Crawford Colorado farmer, Mr. J. C. Thomas, who found the root likely contains the poisonous substance after a steer died following root ingestion.
