Ants Eat Through Lead Cables.

White ants are causing much trou Ole in South Australia in telephone cables and also in the underground electric light lines. On the lead sheathed telephone cables crosses be- tween the circuits began to occur. Upon withdrawing some of this cable from the ducts it was found that the ants had eaten through the lead ii: many places. On the Sidney system of electric lighting the ants ate through the bitumen compound and then through the lead and high ten sion insulation next to the wire. To stop the ravages which will incur an enormous expense if not checked, arsenious oxide mixed with bitumen, sort of pitch. is being applied to the cables. Carbon bisulphide is also be ing tried with the idea that the oduy will drive the ants away.
