PAGE 16 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. APRIL 2,1980 If there are no strenuous objections to the program, a mix of 40 ounces per acre, 32- ounces of the insecticide Sevin and^8-ounces of fuel oil, will be sprayed by helicopter over the 270-acre area. The fuel oil is used to spread the chemical over the leaves. Seaborg said the first spraying should take place in late April or early May followed by a second spraying about 10 days later. The situation in McHenry was described by Seaborg as an "outlying infestation" which makes eradication by spraying "more practical." The gypsy moth has been endemic to the eastern states since its accidental introduction in 1869. Ac­ cording to Seaborg, the moth will attach to trees, rocks, cars, campers, tents, lawn furniture, etc., and in this way is carried across the country. Area residents said they were concerned about the effect of the insecticide on other insects, like bees which pollinate other plants, vegetable gardens, birds, and the like. Seaborg said beehives would be removed from the area prior to spraying since the insecticide, Sevin, is highly toxic to bees. The hives would be replaced after the insecticide has broken down, about 20 days. Seaborg reported that he had never seen any effect of the chemical on birds. One state agency representative said Sevin was used on birds to rid them of mites and other pests. According to Seaborg, CITY SALARIES UP 14.6 PERCENT (Continued from page 1) $2,721,081 while the total, expenditures were projected to be $2,702,639. The dif­ ference would leave McHenry with a surplus of $18,442 at the end of the fiscal year. May 1981. Pepping reported that the City is entering the new fiscal year in good shape - with a surplus of about $30,000, The control budget was approved by a vote of six to one. Aldermen Pepping, Harker, Datz, Wieser, Adams and Schooley voted in favor. Alderman Meurer voted against "the budget. Ajderman Nolan was not present. PROPOSE CITY SPRAY PROGRAM (Continued from page 1) and would be more susceptible to attack by other insects and diseases. A few years of repeated defoliation would kill the tree, he explained. The caterpillars are also fond of evergreen trees, which cannot regenerate needles as fast as a deciduous tree can do. Evergreens usually die in the same season they are attacked. "The caterpillars like the hardwoods," Seaborg ex­ plained, "but flowers, food crops and grasses are not immune." Se\ in is an approved garden pesticide and would be taken care of by simply washing the fruit or vegetable. "I don't know what vegetables you'lla be har­ vesting this early, but if the garden is small enough you could cover it," he added. One possible snag that the program could run into is an Environmental Protection agency rule which prohibits spraying near open water. Boone creek runs "smack dab" in the middle of. the area proposed for spraying, according to Seaborg. "It's more a legal point than a safety one," he said, "It's a problem with the pesticide label." Someone in the audience suggested spraying by hand along the creek, but Seaborg pointed out that the spray has to get into the crown of the trees to be effective. Another member of the audience asked, "What happens if you can't spray along the creek - what can be done?" Seaborg answered, "Nothing, the moth will have its own way." According to Seaborg, the damage does not happen overnight. But, within four or five years, the defoliation is noticeable and in seven or eight years there is heavy defoliation. "If we don't eradicate the pests now, we will have to live with it," he said. "We will have to live with the defoliation until the oak trees eventually die." One man listening to the presentation was adamantly opposed to spraying of any kind. Citing government WHAT WOULD YOU LOOK LIKE WITHOUT YOUR GLASSES? FIND OUT We ve got the softest price in town!

Other alternatives, like parasites and the other natural enemies of the gypsy moth have not taken root in the United States. The gypsy moth is en­ demic to Europe and it has no natural enemies in suf­ ficient quantities to control it in America. One agriculture department representative said researchers have tried more than 40 different organisms to control the moth, but none have taken hold in this country. The man then suggested using a number of these organisms at the same time, instead of trying them singly. Seaborg said that this approach would be fine "when you are ready to live with the defoliation." "We are not asking you to approve of the method, just tolerate it," he commented. The meeting Thursday night was designed to give the agriculture department people an indication of whether there was any strong opposition to the spraying program. If the department decides to go ahead with the program, department employees will be out knocking door-to-door, distributing leaflets, arranging for newspaper and radio announcements in an effort to make sure that everyone is aware of the spraying. Seaborg estimated the cost of the operation at about $20,000 and said it would be paid for by the department. Citizens wanting more information on the program are urged to contact Norman G.
