enough in many areas to
completely defoliate shade

in which it is not present in
any numbers. Wild
cherry, apple and plum trees
are favorite food plants,”
Dr. Guyton said.
The larvae caterpillars
are social, and all those
hatching from an egg clus
ter remain together and so
on form their silken ‘tents’.
These are added to from day
to day as the darvae increase
in size They remain in the
nest during storms and the
wanner part of the day, go
ing out in the early morn
ing and evening to- feed
Full grown larvae are ab
out two inches long
“Nests are easily destroyed
m early spring by wiping
out with the hands This
should be done when the
caterpillars are in the nest,
usually on cool, wet days,”
aldrin
STANDS FOR
BIGGER YIELDS
Dr. Guyton advises. “Burn
ing out the nest may result
in damage to the tree, hence
it is not recommended.
“To protect trees with a
spray, use arsenate of lead,
three pounds in 100 gallons
of water; or DDT 50 per
cent wettable powder at the
rate of two pounds in 100
gallons of water (4 tablespo
ons in one gallon); or Mal
athion 25 per cent wettable
powder at the rate of two
pounds in 100 gallons of
water (1 5 tablespoons in 1
gallon.))”
One thorough spraying of
the infested tree is, enough
to give protection Spray as
soon as the first small
“tents” are noticed.
