Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insects Injurious to the Household and Annoying to Man The present work is not intended as a treatise on the relation of insects to disease. The author's colleagues are now at work on a thorough and extended discussion of that phase of the subject. In the following pages, the writer devotes the principal part of the discussion to the habits, injuries, and control of insects simply as pests of the household and of man, contenting himself with a brief summary of the relation of insects to disease. It is hardly to be expected that SO brief a work will include all of the insect pests that may invade the household but an attempt has been made to discuss, at least, the most important ones with which our present knowledge makes us more or less familiar. The erroneous ideas and unnecessary fears prevalent regarding the poisonous nature Of certain insects and their near relatives and the interest evinced in this matter have seemed to warrant the addition of a chapter on this subject. In this discussion, the author has at tempted to state the Simple truth and to clear away, as far as existing knowledge makes it possible, the hazy and almost superstitious notions regarding the venomous qualities of these small animals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insects Injurious to the Household and Annoying to Man Some one has remarked in a rather facetious vein that, from a zoological standpoint, the present age may be called the age of insects. On second thought, the remark holds more reason than might appear at first sight. We are especially impressed with the importance of the relation to man of these tiny, but multitudinous, forms of life when we recall that the species of insects outnumber the species of all other animals combined; that the insect pests in this country alone cause a loss of over a billion dollars annually; that several hundred trained men in the United States are giving their entire time to a study of these pests; and that thousands of letters are sent each year to our government agencies, requesting information regarding insects and means of fighting them. Until within the last few years the economic importance of insects has been attributed to their indirect injuries to man through attacks on the things that he produces. Suddenly, almost within the last decade, insects have assumed an entirely new and exceedingly important significance through knowledge of their direct injuries to man himself. Since the epoch-making discoveries were made that mosquitoes carry malaria and yellow fever, insects, especially those frequenting the household, have assumed a most unexpected importance. The hum of the mosquito and the buzz of the house-fly have become fraught with an entirely new significance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insects Injurious to Fruits It has been the aim of the author of this work to bring together all the important facts relating to insects known to be injurious to fruits in all parts of Canada and the United States, to add to the information thus obtained the knowl edge he has acquired of the habits and life-history of many of our insect pests by an experience of over twenty years as a fruit-grower and a student of entomology, and to pre sent the results in as concise and plain a manner as possible, avoiding all scientific phraseology except such as is necessary to accuracy. The arrangement adopted under the several headings, by which the insect pests which attack the different parts of the tree or vine under consideration are grouped together, will, it is hoped, with the aid of the illustrations, greatly facilitate the determination of any injurious species. When having before him its history briefly traced and the remedies which have been found most useful in subduing the insect, the reader will at once be enabled to decide as to the best meth ods to be employed. The author desires to make the fullest acknowledgment to those of whose work he has availed himself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports on Injurious Insects During the last few years there has been considerable loss experienced in some of the states to the east of us from the attacks of certain weevils, known commonly as Bill Bugs, upon corn when it is just coming above ground, but up to the present year we have had no information of injuries from these insects in this state. It seems, however, that we are no longer to be favored in this respect as reports and specimens from a number of localities as well as a considerable abnud ance of the insects in the vicinity of Ames points to the in crease of the pests and probable serious losses another year. There are several different species concerned in the work in the states east of us, and as most of these occur in Iowa it is probable that we will have to consider most of them in time as destructive species, but during the present season we have had but two species sent to us or collected here in such numbers as to indicate any serious abundance.
