Show sown ikowlton proposes insecticide usage TO eliminate ants nests exterminated the be can by usually of calcium use of varying amounts cyanide, carbon bisulphide, or other fumigants, explains Dr. George F. Knowlton, entomologist of the Utah Extension Service. Ants are common pests in houses gardens, dooryards, fields, lawns and on golf greens, and harvester overants kill out the vegetation of item considerable an areas, large loss in fields, gardens, and even of Ants living in well-defin- ed livestock (feed on vast range areas.. The entomologist recommends-can- ? trol through the use of approved mixtures, poured in .nests or into holes reaching into ant tunnels. ) Quantity of the insecticide used for each nest depeds upon the area covered by the colony. Dr. Knowlton states. This type of control can sometimes be accomplished with a smaller quantity of fumigant when the ground is damp, but the control is equally effective in dry soil, provided a sufficient quantity of a satisfactory fumigant is used. If calcium cyanide, dust or granule form, is used, a ife holes may be punched in the nest land one-ha- lf to one tablespoonful of the compound poured into each-- hole, the with earth. Another effective means ol' control to to pour, gasoline . into .the openings,'! but 'sufficient gas must b .used.' 1 Use of a liberal trea'tmeh of sodium cyanide (one ounce dissolved in ech gallon of water) usually is effective,- -. v . House ants should receive similar treatment to field and garden-amts- . In Utah, most of the annoying household ants have their nests outdoors, invading the pantry, kitchen; cellar, 6 rfruit room by traveling along a regular runway. Whenever possible, the ant nest shoulc be located and eradicated. In case the next cannot be found, free use of naphthalene flakes, scattered on shelves, floors, in corners,- at 'the heJnappetf Juries, then 5 pomf of entrance1 and along the runways, usually will keep away die intruders Several poisoned syrup, poisoned favt and poisoned jelley ant baits are now on the market, reports Dr. Knowlton, and some are effective against household ants. One material may be very effective against one ant species, but ineffective If the poison is against another. too strong ants will avoid it. The most effective poisoned bait is the one which particularly coincides with the food preference of the species of ant. , - : & slau-gvht- : GOT MINE ; Vs If Pays to Co-opera- Phone 418-- J SOME OF THE GOOD BUYS..
