Valley during the last week-end. Predators — mice or skunks, or both; — have 
visited practically every peach orchard in this locality during recent months 
for pupae and we have found hundreds of empty cocoons near the base of peach 
trees which, these predators have dug out of the ground or tree and eaten the 
pupae. The peach borer infestation should be greatly reduced this year on 
account of the activity of these predators. 
Alabama. J. M. Robinson (September 22): The peach borer is moderately abundant
