- Title
COLORADO BEETLE IN ENGLAND IN RELATION TO ITS SPREAD ON THE CONTINENT.
- Authors
Thomas, I.
- Abstract
This article surveys the development of the Colorado beetle campaign in Europe to show what has been achieved by the continued policy of extermination and what relationship exists between the Colorado beetle situation on the Continent of Europe and that in England. The protective measures are two-fold legislation and protective spraying. The Colorado Beetle Orders of 1933 and 1950 make it illegal for a person to keep in his possession a live Colorado beetle or to spray or otherwise treat any crop infested by, or suspected to be infested by, this insect.
