The bugs nuisance in Seaforth
Theinvasion of the
Earwigs just might make a
credible title for the next
disaster movie if the size and
ferocity of the scuttling little
creatures were exaggerated
for the screen.
In reality, however,
European Erwigs are more of
• .a nuisance than a- genuine
menace.
Present in parts of
Ontario for years now, they
seem to be setting up their
stakes in the Seaforth area.
Earwigs are reddish brown
in colour and about
three-quarters of an ' inch
long. They are equipped with
a pair of forcep-like
appendages which form their
'rear guard,: The forceps are
harmless even .though these
insects will endeavor to pinch
with them when they are
picked up. On the male
earwig, the pincers are
curved; . on the female,
straight. ,
Because they are night
creatures, you won't ' often
see them in the daytime, but
they are capable of climbing
fences, trees and walls. At
might they go foraging for
food,' and their favourite
menu items, include seedling
Carrots, beans, beets and
flowers. At pickling time,
they may: be found under the
husks of sweet corn and in
flowers, and often enter
houses in this disguise..
Despite the fact that they,
are notpleasant to look at,
they won't harm people or
household. items. •
Earwigs lay their eggs in
groups of about 60 in a nest
in the top two inches of soil.
Themother tends her young
there : for two weeks.
Eventually they leave home
and start the cycle all over
again.
First noticeable in June,
they begin invading houses
in July and will continue to
do .so until fall.
Grace Hussey of
• Egmondville who brought
the problem to the Expositor
attention, says she tried
using two cans of Raid to get
aidof the earwigs.
But, she ` says, "they just
sit back on their hind legs
and laugh at you."
Mrs. Hussey submitted
the "following extermination
suggestions:
-Poison bait formula -Mix
12 pounds -of bran and 1
pound of sodium fluoride
(available from druggists and
cod-liver oil and bran from
seed and feed dealers and:
co=operatives), then add 1
quart of cod-liver oil and mix
slowly until the oil is evenly
distributed and, • not lumpy.
• Broadcast the .• bait in the
evening, especially along the
foundationof the house,
under boards, and in other
hiding places '
-Sprays and dusts Use on
of the following sprays: 40
per chlordane emulsion
(liquid concentrate) 4
tablespoons to 1 quart of
water, or. 50 per cent carbaryl
(Savin) wettable . powder --4
tablespoons to 1 gallon of
water, or 50 per ' cent
malathion emulsion (liquids
concentrate) --4 tespoons to 1
gallon of water. Do not apply
this to. Canaert juniper
Because of the odor, .use only
premium grade of malathion
in the house.
Or use one of the following El
dusts or granulars:'5 per cent
chlordane dust, or 5 per cent E.
carbaryl (Sevin) dust, or 4 per
cen m lath on dust, if
available, or 5 per 'cent:
diazinon granular,: it may be
necessary. to repeat the
treatment in 7 to 10 days. Do
not spray or dust vegetables
or fruit with chlordane. Note:
Be careful with insecticides,
area
they are poisonous: Keep
them in a locked cupboard,
away from children.
The Ontario Department of
Agriculture and Food says
that results will be better if
neighbours worktogether in.
an extemination program.
They advise younot to treat
furniture or floor areas where
small children play, and not
to use the bran bait in the
house. The poisons are best
applied along building'
foundations, fences,
woodpiles, garages and
around or on the trunks of.
trees.

Catherine 'Nicholson'
For someone who has difficulty drawing
a crooked line, the skills of an oil painter
are quite impressive:
Mrs. Art (Catherine) Nicholson of R,R.
2, Seaforth, has been painting in oils as a
hobby for the last 10 years.
"I always liked it," said Mns Nicholson,:
"but 1 had five boys and a girl anddidn't
have time."
Catherine Nicholson has been married
for 61 years, and farmed for 40 of them„
She has 13 grandchildren and 15 great
grandchildren. She would like to supply all.

Mrs. Nicholson uses the same brushes

Materials are fairly dear. especially good
quality canvass and paints, White paint is
the colour used most often, but 'red is the
most expensive
A • painting usually takes weeks to
complete,: esneekilly if . the ss*easher is
humid, White paint requires good' weather,
to dry. and oils cannot be dried over heat.
Mrs. Nicholson . has a work-roomin
which she has. her ctisel, although she
sometimes paints elsewhere, One day, she,
