Materials for Disease and Insect Control 
(Prices subject to change without notice) 
DUST AND SPRAY FOR INSECT CONTROL 
We have found DDT to be the most effective material for control of thrips. It should be used as 
a dust at digging time and again at cleaning. During the growing season the plant should be 
dusted every 7-10 days from the time the plant is 6-10 inches high until the blooms open. Wettable 
DDT (DDT-S5OW) diluted to 5% strength can be used as a spray instead of a dust in the field.

ARASAN (Fungicide) 
The use of ARASAN HAS increased due to the fungus diseases in storage. It should be dusted 
on the bulbs as soon as they are dug and again after they have been cleaned. DDT should be 
added for thrip control.

DUST FOR CONTROL IN STORAGE 
Tests show that either Arasan or Spergon dusted on Gladiolus bulbs at digging time, and 
again after cleaning when they are put away for the winter, materially checks the advance of 
the fungus type of Gladiolus disease. These have been recommended as a dust treatment 
to replace the dip method of using New Improved Ceresan. Just dust the bulbs heavily and 
plant, and the dust will tend to immunize the bulb. Wettable Spergon can be used if the 
dip method is preferred.
