Abstract
About 100 materials were mixed with unemulsified refined petroleum oil and sprayed on apples in the laboratory. Newly hatched Cydia pomonella larvae were placed on the sprayed apples. Nicotine sulfate, methyl salicylate and copper cyanide gave the best control at 2% or less in the oil of the materials tested.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
