Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that the larva of the Pentodon Australis, or small black beetle, is one of the most "dreaded" pests on golf courses, noting that most of its destruction occurs between December and April. Mentions that this pest is fond of putting greens, and can be controlled using arsenate of lead mixed with dry sand, applied at 5 pounds of arsenate of lead to 100 square yards of green. |
