Excerpt from Handbook on Insect Enemies of Flowers and Shrubs

The information in this handbook should enable the gardener to recognize the common insect and related pests he may encounter in the flower garden and to apply the proper remedies, thus protecting not only his own plants but also those of his neighbors.

Flower-garden troubles are due to many causes, such as poor soil, unfavorable weather conditions, plant diseases, and attacks by insects. Plants in a healthy, vigorous condition are best able to withstand or outgrow light injury by insects. Consequently, it is important that the best horticultural practices be followed in regard to planting, watering, fertilizing, and cultivation.
