Abstract
Various concs. of Ba fluosilicate with talc as a diluent were tested on the snowy tree cricket, Oecanthus niveus. As the conc. of active ingredient was reduced, the rate of poison application per unit leaf area was reduced, so that the efficiency per unit of poison was increased by dilution.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
