OTHER MEANS OF INSECT CONTROL

In addition to the use of insecticides there are a number of other ways to

control or to help control insect pests. Natural control factors, such as

insect parasites, predators, and diseases, and adverse weather conditions,

are continually at work in the field, and in many instances, they reduce

and keep pest populations at non-economic levels. Good sanitation and

housekeeping practices are essential for effective control of the house ñy,

stable fly, cockroaches, fleas, and similar pests, even when supplemented by

the use of chemicals. Cultural and mechanical practices aid materially in

the control of certain crop pests, including the pink bollworm, boll weevil,

and tobacco hornworm. Crop varieties resistant to insect pests have been

developed and are available to avoid or reduce damage by such insects

as the Hessian fly, wheat stem sawfly, spotted alfalfa aphid, and European

corn borer. More satisfactory control of insect pests may frequently be obtained by carefully integrating the use of insecticides with the beneficial

effects of biological control agents. It may be necessary to use insecticides

only as a supplement to other control methods.

In the case of any insect infestation consider all means of control in order

to capitalize on the value of all control factors and coordinate these factors

to the greatest advantage, with the least harmful effect to the environment and to living organisms within it. Various State and Federal publications suggest this approach to pest control. Consult these publications and

your State agricultural experiment station for the latest information. Do

not use insecticides unless they are needed.

EFFECT OF WEATHER AND PLANT AND ANIMAL

CONDITIONS ON TREATMENT WITH

INSECTICIDES

It is diflScult to provide specific information on the appUcation of insecticides in relation to weather conditions prevailing at the time of treatment.

Only generalities are given here since much depends on the habits of the

insect pest, the kind of damage that it causes, the nature and stage of

maturity of the infested plants, the particular insecticide and formulation

used, and the type of appUcation equipment. For more exact information

to meet special needs, consult your State agricultural experhnent station.

Wind, rain, and sun play an important part in the control you get from

insecticides. Keep an eye on the weather. Local weather reports may be

of help in planning insecticide appHcations. Before you start to treat.

watch the tops of trees or use other means of determining the direction

and amount of wind. Generally speaking, avoid application of insecticides

when the wind is blowing faster than 8 miles an hour. Some air movement

is helpful. High and shifting winds, however, can cause an insecticide

dust or spray to be unevenly distributed on the plants and to drift away

from target areas. Usually the best time for airplane spraying is in the

early morning or late evening. Treating at these times minimizes the harm

to bees and other pollinating insects.

If the weather man predicts rain, it is best to postpone treatment, if

possible. Rain falUng soon after you treat may reduce the eiïectiveness

of an insecticide deposit. Cold weather may have the same effect. Some

insecticides must be apphed at temperatures above 55° F. to be of value.

The type and density of plant foliage, as well as the extent of coverage

needed, may inñuence the choice of formulation that is applied. In some

instances a coarse spray will be the most effective; in others, a fine spray,

mist, or fog will give better pest control. Plants with smooth leaves are

apt to have a quicker ''run off^' of spray material than those with rough

surfaces. However, stickers that are included in the formulation, or which

may be added, help the material adhere to the plants.

Sick, emaciated, or stressed animals may react unfavorably to some treatment materials. Thick hair on livestock may keep the insecticide from

penetrating. Consider all such circumstances in selecting an insecticide,

type of formulation, or type of equipment that will provide the best and

safest control of the target pest.

CALIBRATION OF EQUIPMENT FOR APPLYING

INSECTICIDES TO CROPS^

At the start of each growing season, thoroughly inspect and calibrate all

equipment you will use to apply insecticides to crops. Repeat, thereafter

whenever you use a different rate of apphcation. It is most essential that

you apply the correct dosage, not only to obtain effective control of the

insect pest but also to be certain that any residue remaining at the time

of harvest or feeding does not exceed the tolerance established for the particular chemical on the crop you treat.

Use Pesticides Safely—Follow the Label
Power Sprayers

Before you start to spray a field, check or calibrate the sprayer to determine whether it will dehver at the desired rate. Note: Since viscosity of

spray material can affect the discharge rate, it is preferable to calibrate the

sprayer with the mixture you plan to use. It is also preferable to make

your cahbration in an area as similar as possible to the one you plan to

treat.

One method of caUbrating a sprayer is as follows: (1) Set two stakes in

the ground 40 rods apart (660 feet). (2) With the sprayer on level ground,

fill the tank with the Uquid. Then operate the sprayer long enough so that

aU nozzles are discharging smoothly. Cut off sprayer and refill tank. Then

mark the height of the spray material on a measuring stick that you have

calibrated in gallons for your particular tank. (3) Drive the spray rig one

round trip between stakes at the speed and pressure suggested by the

nozzle manufacturer, with the sprayer in full operation. Spray only between

the stakes. (4) With the sprayer again on level ground, place the measuring

stick in the tank and determine the gallons of spray used for the round trip.

(5) Multiply the number of gallons used by S3 and divide by the number of

feet in the width sprayed. The result of this calculation will be the number

of gallons required per acre.

Example—Suppose the boom on your sprayer is 20 feet long, and it took

5 gallons of spray material to refill the tank after spraying the round trip

during the calibration. Five times 33 divided by 20 equals 8.2 gallons per

acre.

If the calibration shows that the application rate is too low, increase the

rate by reducing the speed of travel or increasing the pressure. You may

decrease the rate by doing the opposite in each case.

Power Dusters

Before starting a dusting operation, check the application rate of the duster

unit. Dust mixtures vary in density, and the application rate can vary at

a given setting of the feed regulator.

A procedure that can be used to calibrate a duster is as follows:

(1) Measure off an area of at least 3^-acre (21,780 square feet). (2) Fill

the dust hopper and set the feed regulator for the desired application rate.

(3) Dust the measured area. Drive at a constant rate of speed, because

rate of speed affects the application rate. Use of a tractor speedometer is

recommended. (4) Refill the hopper from a weighed amount of dust.

Subtract the weight of the dust left over from the weight of the original

amount. This gives the amount required to fill the hopper and, therefore,

the amount apphed to the measured 3^-acre.

Applicators for Granules

Many equipment manufacturers and some producers of granular insecticides can provide tables showing the proper settings of the feed mechanism

for selected flow rates of specific materials. However, it is usually necessary

to calibrate the applicator for each new batch used because of the allowable range of sizes in a formulation and because of differences in density.

You may find it convenient to affix paper bags at the dispersing points of

the applicator, run a measured course at a measured speed, and then weigh

the granules collected. Calculations can then be made to show how many

pounds of granules are being dispersed per acre.

Or you may calibrate your applicator in the field. Set the applicator to

distribute less than the manufacturer recommends. Then measure out 1

pound of granules at a time and mark the level in 1-pound increments on

the inside of each hopper. The marks tell you how fast the granules feed

down, and the applicator can then be gradually opened up to get the rate

desired.

Aircraft Equipment

For information on aircraft calibration, consult U.S. Department of Agriculture Farmers' Bulletin No. 2062, How to Spray the Aircraft Way.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE USE

OF INSECTICIDES

The following safeguards are for the protection of the ultimate consumer

of food crops and animal products, and of honey bees, other pollinating

insects, fish, and wildlife, as well as of handlers of insecticides and treated

plants.

Insecticides are poisonous to man and animals. Use them only when needed

and handle them with care. Follow the directions and heed all precautions

on the container label. Insecticides should be kept in closed, well-labeled

containers, in a dry place where they will not contaminate food or feed,

and where children and animals cannot reach them.

m
Protection of Persons Using Insecticides

In handling apy insecticide, avoid repeated or prolonged contact with

skin and prolonged inhalation of dusts and mists. Wear clean, dry clothing,

and wash hands and face before eating or smoking.

The handling and application of most concentrates and the handling and

application of oil solutions applied as coarse sprays require special precautions. When handling or mixing concentrates of any insecticide, avoid

spilling them on the skin and keep them out of the eyes, nose, and mouth.

If any is spilled, wash it off the skin and change clothing immediately. If

it gets in the eyes, flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes and get medical attention.

The following insecticides can be used safely without special protective

clothing or devices, provided they are in dilute dusts, dilute water sprays,

low volume and dilute oil mist sprays, granules or baits. Concentrates of

these insecticides should be handled in accordance with the precautions

for such materials as described above.

Reduce the danger of skin exposure by wearing protective clothing and

equipment as specified on the container label. If called for, wear a respirator or mask of a type that has been tested by the U.S. Department of

Agriculture and found to be satisfactory for protection against the particular insecticide being used. Full-face masks are needed under certain

conditions. They should always be worn by persons applying insecticides

as aerosols in greenhouses and often by persons loading insecticides into

aircraft or applying them by aircraft. A current list of acceptable respiraUse Pesticides Safely—Follow the Label
tory protective devices may be obtained from the Entomology Research

Division, Agricultural Research Service, Beltsville, Md.

The gas methyl chloride, used as a propellant in greenhouse aerosols, and

the liquid carbon disulfide are both flammable and explosive. Never use

them near heat or fire in any form, or open containers where there is little

air in circulation without wearing an adequate full-face mask. Do not

kansfer ethylene dibromide from one container to another in a closed room ;

do not breathe the fumes.

Protection of Persons Handling Treated Plants

If you must transplant or otherwise handle plants within 5 days after

treatment with endrin, demeton, Di-Syston, Guthion, or parathion, or

within 1 day after treatment with methyl parathion or mevinphos, protect

your skin by wearing clean, dry cotton gloves. If gloves become wet,

replace them with clean dry ones. If you must work in close contact with

treated crops, as in thinning or harvesting, you should also wear clean,

tightly woven clothing.

Treatment for Poisoning

If an insecticide is swallowed, induce vomiting by giving 1 tablespoonful

of salt in a glass of warm water; repeat until vomit fluid is clear or the odor

of solvent is gone. Have the victim lie down and keep quiet. Call a physician

immediately. If a concentrate or oil solution is spilled on the skin, remove

contaminated clothing, and wash skin with soap and water. If a person

suddenly feels sick while using an insecticide or shortly afterwards, a

physician should be called immediately. In all cases make available the

pesticide container and any attached labeling. Information provided by

them is invaluable to the physician.

In many cities there is a Poison Control Center that will have available

information concerning symptoms and treatment of cases of actual or

suspected poisoning by pesticides; consult your local telephone directory.

If you cannot obtain this information locally, call the U.S. Public Health

Service at Atlanta, Ga., or Wenatchee, Wash.

Protection of Fish and Wildlife

To protect fish and wildlife, be careful not to contaminate streams, lakes,

or ponds with insecticides. Avoid drift of materials to such water sources.

Where drift may create a problem, sprays are preferred to dusts and ground

applications to air applications. Do not clean spraying equipment or dump

excess spray material near streams or ponds.

Protection of Insect Parasites and Predators

A grower's program of crop pest control should be designed to take maximum advantage of any biological control factors that may be present.

Whenever possible, the insecticide should be selective against the pest

species concerned, and of minimum danger to beneficial insects. If parasites

or predators are abundant, it may be advantageous to defer or omit insecticide treatments.

Protection of Honey Bees and Other Insect Pollinators

Many insecticides are hazardous to honey bees and to other pollinating

insects. Damage to bees can be minimized by taking the following precautions:

• Use a material least toxic to bees that will control the insect pest.

• If a highly toxic material must be used, apply it during hours when the

bees are not visiting the plants. Treatment during the night or early

morning is the safest.

• Use sprays instead of dusts. They are usually less hazardous. Application

with ground equipment is less hazardous to bees than airplane application.

• Avoid drift of insecticide into bee yards and adjacent crop or wild plants

in bloom.

• Use the lowest effective dosage and make a minimum number of applications.

• Notify beekeepers at least 48 hours before dusting or spraying large

acreages so that measures can be taken to protect the bees.

The following groupings indicate the relative toxicities of many of the

insecticides to honey bees as determined by laboratory and field tests.*^

Avoiding Harmful Residues on or in Food and Feed

Residues in excess of the established tolerances can be avoided by applying

only those insecticides specified for use on the crop or livestock and by

following indicated schedules. Do not exceed recommended dosages.

Observe carefully the safety restrictions, especially the required interval

between the last application and harvest or feeding and between the last

application and slaughter of animals.

Avoid drift of insecticide sprays or dusts to nearby crops or livestock,

especially from appUcations by airplane and other power equipment. Do

not allow poultry, dairy animals, or meat animals to feed on plants or

drink water contaminated by drift of insecticides.

Byproducts from a number of crops treated with insecticides may be

safely fed to Uvestock or poultry if the crops are harvested or fed after the

specified waiting period. However, byproducts from some crops treated

with certain insecticides may contain insecticide residues that will appear

in meat, milk, or eggs in excess of established tolerances when fed to livestock. Before use, it should be determined if such byproducts as sweet

corn or other ensilage, bagasse, alfalfa threshings, apple pomace, bean and

pea vines, sugar beet pulp and tops, cull potatoes, trimmings from leafy

vegetables, and cottonseed meal and hulls are safe for feeding to dairy animals, poultry, or animals being finished for slaughter.

Safe Disposal of Empty Insecticide Containers and Surplus

Insecticides

The careful disposal of empty insecticide containers and surplus insecticides is an important part of safe insecticide use. When possible, growers

should carry their empty insecticide containers to a sanitary land-fill type

dump. If a suitable dump is not available, burn empty insecticide bags and

cardboard containers in the open and bury the ashes in an isolated place

where they will not contaminate water supplies. Keep out of the smoke.

Break or crush glass and metal containers and bury in an isolated place

where they will not contaminate water supplies. Pour excess insecticides

into a hole dug in level ground in an isolated place where they will not

contaminate water supplies, and cover with dirt to a depth of at least 18

inches. Home gardeners should wrap empty insecticide containers in heavy

layers of newspapers before placing them in trash cans. For more specific

information on the safe disposal of empty insecticide containers and surplus

insecticides consult U.S. Department of Agriculture publications on the

subject or your State agricultural experiment station.

Use Pesticides Safely—Follow the Label
TOXICITY OF INSECTICIDES

The following two tables provide information on the toxicity of various

insecticides. In the first table, acute oral and dermal LD50 values are given

for most of the compounds included in this Handbook. The LD50 values

are statistical estimates of the dosage necessary to kill 50% of a population

of white rats or other small test animals within a specified period under

standardized conditions in the laboratory. The toxicity of the chemicals

to such animals may vary, however, with species, age, sex, and nutritional

state, and with the formulation of the insecticide and route of administration. The LD50 values are also usually expressed in terms of a single dosage

and, therefore, provide little or no information on possible cumulative

effects of a copapound. In the second table are given the acute LC50 values

of certain insecticides for two fresh water fishes, rainbow trout and bluegills. The LC50 values are statistical estimates of the concentration necessary to kill 50% of the fish population within a specified period under

standardized laboratory conditions. Such values are not yet available for

all of the insecticides mentioned in the Handbook and for suitable representatives of the many different species of both fresh and salt water fishes.

LD50 values are useful in making comparisons of different chemical compounds. However, they have certain limitations and caution must be used

in their interpretation in relation to actual use hazards. Since the values

are obtained for animals, they can be applied only with reservations to man.

The hazard of any compound may depend more on the way in which it is

used than on its toxicity. Under comparable conditions and dosage rates,

highly toxic substances present a greater hazard than less toxic materials.

However, such factors as inherent toxicity, dosage rate, frequency of application, and persistence must be considered. For example, a highly toxic

material applied in a low concentration or at a low dosage may be less

hazardous than a much less toxic one used in a high concentration or at a

high dosage.

PUBLICATIONS CONCERNED WITH SAFE USE

OF INSECTICIDES

For further information on the safe use of insecticides mentioned in this

Handbook, consult the following U.S. Department of Agriculture publications:

Farmers' Checklist for Pesticide Safety (Program Aid No. 622)

Safe Use of Pesticides in the Home-in the Garden (Program Aid No. 589)

Apply Pesticides Safely by Aircraft

Safe Disposal of Empty Pesticide Containers and Surplus Pesticides

Behind the Pesticide Label (Picture Story No. 168)

Respiratory Devices for Protection Against Certain Insecticides

(ARS-33-76-1)

EXPLANATION OF TABLES THAT FOLLOW

'formulation'' refers to the form or concentration of the insecticide,

usually as purchased. Dusts and granules are generally applied at the

strength purchased. Unless otherwise indicated, emulsifiable concentrates,

wettable powders and powders are to be diluted with water, the amount

depending on the output of the equipment, and applied as spn ys.

The insecticides and formulations opposite each insect are to be used

separately unless mixtures are indicated by plus (+) signs.

A single entry in a box applies to all the insecticides and formulations

opposite that box, except as specified.

A dash in the tolerance column means that no tolerance had been established at the time this guide was prepared. A dash in other columns indicates

that there are no data for the insecticide that is opposite it on the same line.

The following abbreviations are used:

Bait B

Dust D

Emulsifiable concentrate EC

Granules G

Spray S

Wettable powder WP

Solution soin.

Several insecticides that were once known by their proprietary names

now have common names which are used in the following tables. The

common names and their earlier designations are as follows: carbaryl

(Sevin); carbophenothion (Trithion); coumaphos (Co-Ral); dichlorvos

(DDVP) ; dioxathion (Delnav) ; endosulfan (Thiodan) ; fenthion (Baytex) ;

mevinphos (Phosdrin) ; naled (Dibrom) ; tetradifon (Tedion) ; and trichlorfon (Dipterex, Dylox and Neguvon).

Mention of a proprietary product in this publication does not constitute

a guarantee or warranty of the product by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and does not imply its approval by the Department to the exclusion

of other products that may also be suitable.
