Control of Strawberry Root Weevil in the New York State Nurseries

In the early summer of 1950, about a dozen spots (approximately 1 foot in diameter) of dead trees were found in beds of 2-year-old white spruce and Norway spruce seedlings at Lowville Nursery. Most of these spots were on the south side of the seedbeds, and death of the seedlings was tentatively attributed to sunscald. No spots like these were seen during the 1951 growing season. In the fall of 1951 all of the stock at Lowville appeared to be healthy.
