KILLING MEALY BUGS. 



I have been and am now troubled 

 with mealy bug.s on my colons, begonias, 

 sultanas and various other plants. 

 Please advise mo how to control or ex- 

 terminate these pests. J. R. A. — Ga. 



The force of water from a hose, well 

 directed throujrh a fine spray nozzle, is 

 the best cure for the mealy bup. It 

 may be necessary to lay some of the 

 plants down to clean them thoroughly. 

 Hydrocyanic acid gas will kill the 

 mealy bugs, but it must be used with 

 great care, and the higher the tem- 

 perature, the greater is the possibility 

 of injuring the plants. C. W.
