HOW TO CONTROL GARDEN PESTS” 
Insects and plant diseases. Controls AFTER pests 
have appeared are spraying and dusting with suit- 
able insecticides and fungicides. BEFORE the pests 
appear, good gardening practices can make it 
harder for them to gain a foothold. 
These practices are: Good cultivation, adequate 
fertilizing and irrigation coupled with good weed 
control. In spite of these measures, periods in each 
season bring certain pests in quantities that call for 
special spray, dust or baiting activities. You can 
gear your routine of pest control to your spare time | 
and the size of your garden. Hand-operated spray 
or dust guns are adequate for the smaller areas. 
Mechanical dusters or sprayers may be necessary in 
larger areas where there is more planted material 
to be covered and protected. 
All-purpose or dual-purpose sprays or dusts will 
take care of most of the pest control problem in a 
small place. In larger areas where larger groups 
of identical plant material attracts specific types of 
disease or insect, special types of material may be 
needed to get results. 
INSECT PESTS are of two types. 1. Sucking in- 
sects. 2. Chewing insects. For sucking insects con- 
tact poisons are necessary for control; for chewing 
insects stomach poisons. Slugs and snails while not 
insects, rank as “chewers’’ and are handled by 
poison baits, most of which are also charged with 
arsenical poisons to get earwigs, cutworms, and 
similar pests. Routine baiting, particularly in fall, 
midsummer and spring, usually will handle these 
garden enemies. 
FUNGOUS PESTS, of which mildew is most com- 
mon, and which include rusts, blights, etc., are all 
treated with fungicide spray or dust. Routine pre- 
ventive spraying or dusting to keep foliage and 
stems resistant to the fungus spores is best. Dusting 
or spraying after a fungous disease has attacked, 
will not restore foliage damaged already. It will, 
however, check spreading of the infestation. Some 
shrubbery and weeds serve as breeding grounds for 
fungous pests. Weed-free gardens and clean hedge- 
rows are good insurance against such things. 
Have separate dust or spray guns for: 1. Insecti- 
cides. 2. Fungicides. 3. Weed killers. Then you 
won’t risk damaging plants with the residue of some 
chemical that is not suited to the jab you want to do. 
Very little weed killer residue in an insecticide or 
fungicide gun could kill flowers you are trying to 
protect from insect or fungous damage. Play safe 
in this job!
