Fight Insects With Arsenate Sulphate For This Year
Iowa State College extension entomologist Harold Gunderson advises growers to rely on lead arsenate for chewing insects and nicotine sulphate for sucking insects as rotenone and pyrethrum supplies dwindle. Mixing the two may help control both types on the same plant, but usually one is enough. Lead arsenate can be used as a dust or spray, with dust made of 1 part lead arsenate to 9 parts hydrated lime or similar materials, and spray mixes using 1 to 3 tablespoons per gallon of water.
