Watch For
Armyworms
By David H. Williams
Farmers with small grain and
winter grazing should be on the
lookout for fall armyworms.
These crops — especially new
stands—-can be destroyed if large
numbers of these insects are pres
ent. So, until frost, inspect your
fields regularly.
If armyworms are found, you
may need to treat with insecti
cides to save your crops.
Sevin at the rate of 1 to 1 1-2
pounds actual per acre. Phosdrin
at 1-4 to 1-2 pound actual per
acre and parathion at 1-4 pound
actual per acre are recommended.
When using any pesticide, be
sure to follow precautions on the
label.
Destroy Containers
And what do you do with
empty pesticide containers? On'
many farms you can find them
lying around here and there.
These are left over after treating
various crops — especially cotton J
and soybeans.
Farm animals can be poisoned
if they are sprayed with mater- |
ials mixed in used pesticide con
tainers. These containers should
not be used for anything. The
best bet is to destroy them.
