Abstract

Results of the second season's experiments with sprays containing coal tar distillates of English and American origin confirm the results of 1931. The higher concentrations may give control of San Jose scale ( Aspidiotus perniciosus ) comparable to that obtained with a standard petroleum oil spray of 3% oil. A combination of coal tar oil and petroleum oil against aphis eggs and scale in the dormant season is suggested.
