Mr Phillips Advises Against Kilscale and Consol for San Jose Scale
The Entomologist J L Phillips reports experiments with Kilscale, Consol, and lime sulphur against San Jose Scale. At lye-strengths they killed many trees, while at higher strengths Kilscale and Consol matched lime sulphur in killing insects but cost far more and are not recommended except in limited use. Results vary by season, with late season data proving more reliable for infestation assessment.
