Excerpt from Common Injurious Insects of Kansas When we come to consider remedies, it is evident at once that remedies whose effectiveness consists in the fact that the foliage which is eaten by the insects is poisoned by being covered With' a coating of some arsenical mixture cannot be used against sucking insects who get their food from the inside of the leaves.
