Talk:Boll weevil

message: The "Infestation" section copies from Today in History: December 11.  This page details the source of the quote as 
Always Agin It
"Always Agin It," Place Chapin, South Carolina
John L. Dove, interviewer, January 24, 1939.
American Life Histories, 1936-1940
Upon looking at the article history, it appears that this section was the core of the original article.  4 years of editing have still left intact phrases.  What's the proper solution?  I'm at least adding the link to external links.

replies: text: While the article needs re-writing, that section is not a copyvio, since loc.gov is a US governnment website. I like all the song refererences; they are disproportionately represented, but that can be fixed. Will look at other good agricultural pest articles. Novickas 11:53, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The song "Boll Weevil" was not written by Leadbelly, it is a popular folk song with many recordings (such as those by the Masked Marvel (Charlie Patton) and Blind Willie McTell) that all predate Leadbelly's recorded version.  Furthermore, many more people have performed this song besides Odetta and the White Stripes.

Is all of the information about songs actually necesary?  If it is, Old Crow Medicine Show also has a song called "Boll Weevil" I think.

message: Could someone clean up this sentence:
 The eggs hatch in three to five within the cotton squares for eight to ten days, then pupate.
I get the addition of days, but:
- what is a cotton square, and what is/are the missing verb/s?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.151.211.223 (talk) 15:16, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

message: I saw in the recent spending bill that eradication is earmarked if the "pink bollwor" is considered by an official "to be a boll weevil for the purpose of boll." Sounds like there is an industry for controlling these populations. How the official decides on the pink bollworm should be covered for anti-corruption if it winds up leading to boll weevil eradication. The reason is there are enterprises equipped for new eradication programs, and if the pink bollworm gets slated for destruction that decision deserves inspection.
