Indicated as Control

Washington hasn't seen anything
yet when it comes to Japanese
beetles. Next summer is expected
to be the worst on record, but the
ONCE of National Capital Parks,
which is the spearhead of the at
tack on these Oriental pests. held
out a ray of hope today by saying
that within the next few years
beetle control program started last
summer may enforce some measure
Of control
Ralph T. White, assistant ento-
mologist In charge of the disease
division Of the Agriculture Depart
ment's Morrestown IN. .J) Re-
search Laboratory, who is directing
the park Offices efforts to control
the bronze-red and green insects,
predicted today that 1e41 would
see the most serious infestation of
the beetles yet experienced here.
Sc Beetle Larvae Per Foot.
Recent counts of grubS in the
Mall lawn areas revealed as. many
as Sc beetle larvae to the square
foot. 1t was estimated today that
average District infeStation is 20
grubs to the square foot, the total
number of potential beetles run
ming into the billions.
Yet within three years con-
troll measure, developed at the
Moorestown laboratory and adopted
this year as the park office offered
to serve as one of a number of
guinea pig" areas for tests Of the
control program, may materially
reduce the numbers of beetles found
in Washington.
The beetle-control measure so far
has involved "colonizing" 1,500 acres
of lawn area In the National Capital
park system with TYPE "A Milky
Disease'-most recent and effective
method for beetle control developed
by science.
Fungus Attacks Grubs.
The disease, a spore-forming fun
gus, attacks the beetles with fatal
results during the 10 months of their
12-month life span which they
spend as grubs in the soil Although
1t requires IL to 18 months for the
disease to become effective, once it
has taken proper hold in "colonized"
areas it will remain in the soil as
a permanent safeguard against re-
infestation.
Bacteria for the spread of the
disease are obtained through the
incubation of beetle larvae with the
disease organism. Infected grubs
are then ground and mixed with
tale for distribution.
Park officials said today that the
milky disease mix is not yet COM
mercial and Is not available to
home owners or non-governmenta
agencies.
