| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses several effective treatments available for the control of casting worms. Details Mowrah meal, lead arsenate, chlordane, and carbaryl, and their effectiveness in eradicating casting worms. Mentions that "Carbaryl is an effective, quick acting insecticide which will act much more quickly than chlordane and which has none of the disadvantages of chlordane... Another characteristic of carbaryl is that due to its fairly rapid breakdown in the soil, it will only kill casting worms and not worms which are active at lower levels and which are wholly beneficial." |
