Abstract
Lindane, used according to commercial specification (approximately 3.1% concentrate), was completely effective in preventing attack by Ips confusus on ponderosa and sugar pine. Effective control in infested logs was achieved regardless of the time of treatment. Longevity of emerging brood adults was significantly reduced and there appeared to be a difference in susceptibility to attack by Ips between ponderosa and sugar pine.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
