Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fruit Tree Leaf Roller and Its Control Under Illinois Conditions
Experiments for a control of this insect by the use of poison sprays showed that this method was not practical.
Dormant spraying of the egg masses with a number of miscible 0115 and home made lubricating oil emulsions has shown that very satisfactory control can be obtained with an 8% boiled lubricating oil emulsion made according to the Illinois formula.
Cold - mixed oil emulsions at the same Strength also gave excellent control in the experimental work.
