N2  - Continued observations on Aphodius populations in a pasture treated with DDT in 1946 (Carne 1948) indicate that a single such treatment results in a marked depression of the larval population for at least three seasons. It has been shown that dosages of DDT as low as 10 ounces&dagger; per acre result in an effective control of first-instar larvae. The use of DDT-impregnated superphosphate is a simple and effective means of preventing the occurrence of Aphodius infestations in susceptible pastures.
