They are nearly white, but their tails, which are generally curled under their bodies and are the thickest part of the grub, are bluish. Practically there is no way of destroying them except turning them up out of the ground, and the easiest way of keeping this insect in check is by killing the cockchafers. The grubs of several kinds of weevils feed on the roots of plants, but unfortunately they cannot be caught in traps as the wireworms can, and the best way when a plant is attacked is to take... it up and pick out the grubs from among the roots. The caterpillars of the "ghost" and "swift moths" (Hepialus humuli and 348 GARDENING FOR BEGINNERS H. Lupulinus] attack the roots of various plants, and those of the " dart moth" (Agro ti segetum), and some others, on the roots and also on the collars of the plants. They hide under stones, clods, &c. , or in cracks of the ground during the day. The other division, Grubs with no Legs, are all the grubs of flies. Many only feed on decaying vege- table matter, but a large number feed on the roots of various plants.
