RE: Methoxychlor
Just from your description, it sounds like the kind of stuff I wouldn't
think of spraying on my garden. I hope you live a long way away from
Wisconsin. You might want to investigate alternatives.

> Question for the Checkons ... Ironite... What kind do you use and how
often.... I got a 25 lb bag of granular and spread it with a hand spreader
over my 2000 sq foot patch and raked it in. do you use the liquid prep at
all? How often do you apply?.......Question # 2 to any one who knows... I
got a 4 pound bag of marlate 50w..duponts brand of Methoxychlor...From the
news letters I have read it is suposed to be good for the squash vine boreer
if you cant get asana which is restricted. I had to go to a farmers co-op
store to get it and they even had to get it special for me. The instructions
on it talk about ariel distribution over 50 acres, This is going to be a
lifetime supply for me it says for small areas use 2 tablespoonsful per 50
gallons this would work out to a very small fraction of a teaspoonful to use
in my 2 gallon sprayer.. For those with experience with this product What
concentration are you using it at???????......Thanks, Brian
