Paris green has no effect on squash
bugs. This is because all the true bugs
as the squash bugs, lice, etc have a
beak or proboscis with which they
puncture the cpidermis of the leaf and
sip the Juices from its interior. In this
way they avoid the poison by sticking
their beaks through it. A good way to
capture squash bugs is to lay pieces of
board under the vines, and the bugs,
crawling under them at night. can be
captured in the morning. The bugs are
usually found with theirifect against the
boards, pressing their backs to the earth
to keep them warm.-N. Y. Herald.
