CARTERS WORM KILLER. 
DIRECTIONS FOR USE. 
(1) Select a mild day when the earth is moist and the worms are active. 
(2) Cover the Lawn or Green with Carters Worm Killer at the rate of half a 
pound per square yard. 
(3) Water the Worm Killer in immediately with a hose, water cart, or can, and 
use as much water as possible. 
The effect is instantaneous. The worms, large and small, struggle to the surface 
in thousands and die. 
Carters Worm Killer is absolutely infallible, provided that 
it comes into contact with the worms. 
If it does not touch the worms it cannot kill them ; therefore use plenty of water. 
Try one pound first before applying bulk. This will tell you if the worms are 
about. 
Carters Worm Killer is a powder and is not poisonous to animal and bird life. 
The advantages derived by using Carters Worm Killer : — 
(1) The greens play true winter and summer alike. 
(2) The turf becomes clean and healthy. 
(3) The turf improves, as one of the constituents of the Worm Killer is a valuable 
plant food. 
(4) The surface becomes true and firm. 
(5) It is no longer necessary to roll or brush the greens every morning. 
(6) It is not necessary to rest the greens during the winter. 
(7) It reduces the cost of the upkeep of the green from £25 to £75 per annum 
according to the size and number of the greens. 
Worms spoil putting greens because : — 
(1) The worm casts make accurate putting impossible. 
(2) The continual movement of the worms makes the surface soft and spongy, 
which no amount of rolling will remedy. 
(3) Brushing off worm casts damages the turf, as the action of the broom bruises 
and exposes the surface roots of the grass. 
(4) Rolling down worm casts smothers the grass and is responsible for many bare 
patches. 
Note. — It took 5 men four hours a day to remove the worm casts from the greens of 
the Bushey Hall Club, at an estimated cost of £75 per annum. Since the greens 
were treated with Carters Worm Killer this expense has practically ceased.
