What reading level is Pecan Insects book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The adults emerge during the spring or early summer. As will be seen, it is practically im- possible to tell whether an unopened nut has been attacked or not, unless the grub has left it. The egg puncture is so small that one can hardly find it.
CONTROL.
Probably the best method for controlling this pest is to fumi- gate the nuts with carbon bi-sulphide, using about 10 pounds to 1,000 cubic feet. It is also reported that the grub may be killed by heating the nuts to 125^-150° Fahrenheit. With e...ither method it is necessary to gather and treat all the nuts from trees which are found to be infested. They must also be gathered early, be- fore the grubs have entered the ground.
One severe outbreak near Thomasville, Ga., was apparently controlled by turning hogs into the grove as early as possible in the fall. At least, no other control methods were tried and the in- sects did not cause any injury in the grove the following year.
A LEAT FEEDING BEETLE.* (Diplotaxis excavata Leconte.) On April 16th, 1912, at DeWitt, Ga., a large number of leaves and young growing tips of pecans were found on the ground.
