Begin Now To Fight Against Garden Pests
Farmers and home gardeners are urged to start an offensive pest battle at the first invasion. Use cryolite and calcium arsenate for flea beetles and cucumber beetles, nicotine sulfate or pyrocide for plant lice, stink bugs, and squash bugs, plus baits for cutworms. Apply with a duster or sprayer and repeat every four to five days until pests are gone. Begin as soon as pests appear and cover the leaf undersides thoroughly.
