Abstract
The control of the larvae of the Asiatic beetle (A nomala orientalis Waterhouse) in lawns can be accomplished by poisoning the soil with lead arsenate. The arsenate may be mixed with water and the resulting suspension sprinkled over the lawn, it may be mixed with a top-dressing of loam, or it may be incorporated in the upper inch of lawn soil. When applied as a suspension in water the amount recommended is three pounds of arsenate of lead per 100 square feet of lawn surface. When applied in a top-dressing of loam or incorporated in the upper inch of soil the amount recommended is two pounds per 100 square feet. The lawns should be treated before August 1st.
