In about a month it eats its way out
through the side of the apple and

The way to kill the apple-worm is to
spray with arsenate of lead, Paris
green, and Bordeaux mixture.
Woodpeckers and Nuthatches de-
stroy millions of the apple-worms by
digging them out from under the bark
of the trees in winter. By thoroughly
scraping the bark with a sharp hoe
so as to destroy the larva is a great
aid in keeping this insect under con-
troll.
In spraying it is very important to
spray at just the right time. The first
spraying should be made before the
buds open, the second spraying should
be with Bordeaux mixture insecticide.
