Wrecking Crew Now at Work
on Home Lawns
ill
Warm weather brings forth a
horde of insects, as any home
gardener knows. It’s easy to see
the surface pests that chew on
green grass and foliage, but en
tomologists say that insect larvae
in the soil also <;ause serious
damage by eating the roots of
grass and shrubs.
Lawn and garden experts are
urging homeowners to treat early
in the season to avoid the ravages
of the insect “wrecking crew.”
One way to get rid of hungry
bugs and grubs that eat the
beauty'out of your turf and orna
mentals is to apply dieldrin, a
lawn insecticide that lasts a long
time.
Lasts for years in soil
In the soil, dieldrin actually
provides protection against insect
larvae for years. On the surface,
this insecticide is effective for
weeks. Cutworms, ants, lawn
moths, chinch bugs, white grubs,
and even mosquitoes, chiggers
and fleas that live in grass and
shrubbery, are controlled by diel
drin. Entomologists exp'ain that

this insecticide, one of the new
members of the chlorinated hy
drocarbon family, kills insects if
they eat, breathe or touch it.
The new bug killer is available
in several forms, all of which can
be applied easily by the home
•owner to turf or ornamental
plants. *
Choose suitable formulation
It’s up to the gardener to
choose the formulation best suited
to his needs. He should spread it
over the entire lawn, making sure
not to miss' areas. The insecticide
can be applied anytime, but after
application turf should be watered
to soak the insecticide into the
soil.
Formulations of dieldrin are
prepared and sold by leading in
secticide manufacturers under
their own brand names, such as
Ortho. Acme, R-'al-KiU. Lawrflrol,
Black Leaf and others. These
products can be purchased at
