Mold Control
Method Given
Sooty mold on camellia and holly
can be effectively controlled diming
August with several applications of
either Diazinon, Malathion, or Se-
vin, points out Tom Zinn, Columbia
county agent.
The cause of the sooty appearance
on camellia and holly leaves is caus­
ed by a fungus which develops in the
excrement of the scale insects feed­
ing on the plant. The development of
the black mold will stop when the
scale insects are controlled.
Timing is very important for the
control of the InMîcts since our
sprays are not <S«4ive while the
scale is in the egg stage. This is
during the months of June and July.
For the best control the insecti­
cides should be applied during May
or August and September. Since
most of the scale insects are found
on the underside of the leaves a
thorough coverage of the entire plant
including the underside of the leaves
is necessary, says Zinn.
Besides the damage that the scale
insects do directly many of these in­
sects are responsible for great loss
through carrying viruses, which
cause some of our most destructive
plant diseases.
t
The extension service has an ex­
cellent fact sheet, available upon re­
quest, on the contrql of cottony ca­
mellia and soft browir- scale insects.
You may pick one up at our office
located in the courthouse.
