Elm Beetle Threatens Lexington Shade Trees
Inquiries about elm leaf beetle injuries rise in Kentucky. The European beetle, first noted in Bardstown in 1898, attacks European elms and sometimes American elms, defoliating trees. Larvae descend to the ground where they can be killed with hot water or coal oil. sticky fly paper can trap them. Effective control involves spring spraying with arsenate of lead, applied with a strong force pump. Sprayers and outfits can be bought in Ohio and New York. Community spraying could create local work, with homeowners paying for services. H. Garman signs off from the Kentucky Experiment Station.
