The finding of suitable poisons is cause some insects are very pParkicuâ€" lar in their tastes. "The readily deâ€" tect poisons that are sprayed or dustâ€" ed over the leaves of plants and reâ€" fuse to feed there. _ For example, the larvae of some moths that attack shade trees will die of starvation rather than eat leaves sprayed with arsenical compounds. _ __ _ _‘ _ Not Injurious to Plants "If we know an insect‘s preferences we can deal with it better.

And with many of the poisons now being used, there is a very narrow margin between the points where the insects are killed and the plants are injured.
