Question: | "Kindly give me your opinion on corrosive sublimate for the eradication of worms in putting greens, both as to its efficiency as an exterminator and its effects, if any, upon the turf. I have heard that this chemical is injurious to turf." |
Source of Question: | Michigan |
Answer/Response: | "In our experience corrosive sublimate is the best of all of the worm eradicators, the best from the standpoint of getting the largest number of worms and also because of its cheapness. It does not injure the turf unless used in excessive quantities, and there are no deleterious after-effects." |
