IMPORTANT 
During the past several years Gladiolus 
have suffered badly from infestations of 
Thrips and it has become necessary to treat 
all bulbs before planting to rid them of these 
pests. All of our bulbs have been so treated, 
but if you have other bulbs, they should be 
treated before planting because the insects 
will spread rapidly. 
Soak the bulbs for six hours in a solution 
of Lysol, using 4 teaspoonfuls of Lysol to 
each gallon of water. Several lots may be 
treated at the same time by tying up each 
in a cloth bag. A wood label marked with 
an indelible pencil, may be used to tag them.
