Ridding Cotton Fields of the Boll Weevil With Sticky Pan Method
State entomologist Dr. Frederick W. Mally urges farmers to use a sticky pan method to trap boll weevils. By placing a tar or molasses coated pan near plants and jarring them weekly before squares form, weevils drop in and are collected, reducing later damage. Tests show 500–600 weevils per acre trapped, indicating early action saves labor and crop yield.
