Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the insects that plague greenhouse plants. Written by experts in the field, it details the identification, habits, and control of a wide range of insect pests, including leaf-eating insects, sucking insects, and those that bore into plant roots. The book also includes information on animal pests such as mites, sowbugs, and slugs, and discusses the beneficial insects that can help to control the pests. The book reflects the concerns of greenhouse operators in the 1940s, a time when the rise of commercial greenhouses presented unique challenges in controlling insect infestations. The author emphasizes the importance of prevention, recommending practices such as screening ventilators and doors to keep insects out and eliminating weed growth. He also discusses the use of a variety of chemical controls, including lead arsenate, Paris green, nicotine extracts, and hydrocyanic acid gas fumigation. The book explores the use of parasites as a natural control method and highlights the limitations of this approach. While the methods described may be outdated by current standards, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of insect control in horticulture and offers valuable insights into the importance of early detection and preventative measures. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the challenges faced by greenhouse growers and the evolution of pest management practices.
