Cornfields Sprayed To Combat Japanese Beetles
In Frederick Frederick County and nearby counties 478 acres of cornfields have been sprayed by airplane with a DDT emulsion to control the Japanese beetle. Dr Ralph L Trasy of All Organic Chemicals Inc said early results show continued DDT activity and visible residue on treated foliage despite rains. One gallon per acre gave satisfactory protection. two gallons per acre spread more widely to reach lower foliage. Light breezes aided dispersion. Beetles moved from untreated to treated foliage were killed. many still present in untreated areas four to five days after spraying. Pests near power lines and buildings persisted briefly before declining as migration continued. The beetle outbreak winds down but damage is fading, with next spray season anticipated.
