Powdered hellebore as larvacide for manure to fight flies
The 15th Department of Agriculture promotes powdered hellebore mixed with water as a safe, effective larvacide that kills fly larvae in manure without harming manure value or vegetation. Borax is mentioned as cheaper but possibly more damaging at large applications. Directions: mix half a pound of hellebore with 10 gallons water and spray the pile edges. Price quotes: hellebore 2 to 30 cents per pound, borax 10 to 12 cents.
