INSECTICIDE SEVIN: EFFECT OF AERIAL SPRAYING ON DRIFT OF STREAM INSECTS
Abstract:
There was a rise in the rate of drift of aquatic insects in a stream contained within an area of woodland sprayed with Sevin for control of the gypsy moth. It appears from the pattern of drift that there was a drastic reduction of the standing crop of stream insects as a result of the spraying.
