PARIS GREEN FOR THRIPS. 



I recently heard that some growers 

 use Paris green and sugar in a solution 

 of water i'or thrips. Will you kindly 

 give me the proportions of this formula 

 and the best way to apply it? Any other 

 information on the destruction of this 

 troublesome little insect will be thank- 

 fully received. L. M. 



I had not heard of the use of a solu- 

 tipn of Paris green for these trouble- 

 some insects. Thrips are found deep 

 among the close-fitting petals of roses, 

 and unless you could saturate every petal 

 it would not be effective. Eed pepper, 

 often called Cayenne pepper, is a more 

 convenient remedy for thrips. Heat 

 some common bricks red hot and dis- 

 tribute them around your house. AVe 

 found four bricks in a house 21x150 

 did the business all right. As soon as 

 you iiave the hot bricks in place on 

 your paths, put a tablespoonful of the 

 pepper on each brick. You need not 

 stay in the house to witness the spiders 

 expire. You can rest assured that they 

 will be troubled with such a violent 

 attack of sneezing that they will be glad 

 to pass away in peace. Procure your 

 pej)pcr from some source where it will be 

 fresh, for if old it loses its strength.
