WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT QUANTITIES ON SALE ITEMS 223- My master gardener, Jennie Maidak and I were swamped with questions last week. They were primarily on eastern tent caterpillars (often confused with gypsy moths), imported Willow Leaf beetles, Scales on Maples and other trees, Pine sawflies, aphids, and an insect feeding on elms that had been identified as this was written. With every insect comes talk of pesticides and we were alarmed to hear of how these pesticides are sometimes misused. I cannot stress enough how important the container label is. It is mandatory that it be read before the pesticide is used. Use only the amount specified and be sure it will solve the problem at hand. Here are the latest facts on some of the insects I men­ tioned above. Eastern Tent c a t e r p i l l e r s -- t h e y h a v e virtually finished their tree leaf eating now that they are full size. They are now crawling out of the tree to find a place of protection to pupate or become a cocoon. They will do this on your house or on your patio fur­ niture. They cannot easily be controlled now. Remember "these are not Gypsy moth larva or caterpillars. Gypsy moths do not form the tents in the tree limbs that is characteristic of the Eastern Tent caterpillar. Gypsy Moths-many people think they have these but I have not seen any. They are usually Tent caterpillars. The Gypsy moth larvae will be very small at first and by eating tree leaves grow to l'/fe inches or more and be about as thick as a pencil. They are characterized by tne double row of blue and then orange spots that run the length of their back. Pine sawflies-they did a lot of feeding on pine trees. They are characterized by the pine needle eating and their ability to synchronize a body movement with the other worms are a particular branch. They are really funny to watch until you realize they are eating your tree. Imported Willow Leaf- beetle-these are the small black insects feeding on willow leaves. The in­ festation may not be great enough to worry about controlling them. Scale-this insect looks more like a disease of .tree stems and branches. The scale insects attach to the stems a&d branches by a suction type mechanism. PAGE 9 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25,1980 call us if they cannot. We are at 338-3737 or 4747.

A p p l e G r o w e r s Referendum and Election-- Apple growers with 250 or more trees can vote for or against the Apple and Peach M a r k e t i n g p r o g r a m referendum any time bet­ ween now and June 30. The marketing program if ap­ proved would . allow producers to financially support a research or m a r k e t i n g p r o g r a m managed by the same producers. Producers cah say yes or no to the referendum plus vote for a program board director at the University of Illinois Cooperative Ex­ tension service office at 789 McHenry avenue, (Rt. 120). We are open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Directors for our area, Northern 111 are John Bell, Jr. and Robert Edwards; Jr. Because of their color and large numbers they look like they are just an ugly growth rather than an insect. Many kinds of scale are around. The most prevalent is not cotton maple scale. The top of the scale will peel back soon if it hasn't yet and reveal a cottony mass. In it are eggs that will soon hatch into crawlers that will feed or. the underside of the leaves. You can control the crawlers at that time. The best time to control scale is when the tree is dormant. At that time a dormant oil can be sprayed on the tree and the scale will be smothered. Aphids-these are well known by many. They are small Vs inch long insects that are kind of egg shaped. They come in varying shades of green. They are characterized by the huge numbers that feed together on the underside of leaves. They may be on vegetables, roses, trees and many other plants. It is important to note that the chemical Carbaryl (Sevin) will not control Aphids. I have on purpose not mentioned which in­ secticides to use because they do vary somewhat. Talk to your garden store or hardware man for help or It isn't easy being a parent these days. Sometimes I wish my daughter would go out with Dracula. At least he gets his dates back by daybreak.
