Wood affected by woodworm. Signs of woodworm usually consist of holes in the wooden item, with live infestations showing powder (faeces), known as frass, around the holes.. The size of the holes varies, but they are typically 1 to 1.5 millimetres (5 ⁄ 128 to 1 ⁄ 16 in) in diameter for the most common household species, although they can be much larger in the case of the house longhorn beet
Herbicides that include a combination of 2,4-D, dicamba and mecoprop have proven effective in controlling broadleaf weeds. It's advised to apply these from January through spring for optimal results.
Fusarium patch is a disease in turf grass settings also called pink snow mold or Microdochium patch. In many cool season grass species in North America, it is caused by the fungus Microdochium nivale. [1] The white-pink mycelium on infected leaf blades is a distinguishing characteristic of the Microdochium nivale pathogen. [2]
Fragment of a broomstick affected by woodworm. Woodboring beetles are commonly detected a few years after new construction. The lumber supply may have contained wood infected with beetle eggs or larvae, and since beetle life cycles can be one or more years, several years may pass before the presence of beetles becomes noticeable.
Trichodesma. Anobiinae is the subfamily of death-watch beetles [3] in the family Ptinidae, with at least 45 genera. [4] [5] [1] It was formerly considered a member of the family Anobiidae, but its family name has since been changed to Ptinidae.
Snakes tend to make themselves known during prime infestation season in July through November, and if you live in a snake-heavy state like Georgia, Florida, New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona, then ...

For the sugarcane crop to be infected by the disease, large spore concentrations are needed. The fungus includes a structure known as a 'smut-whip', a curved black structure which emerges from the leaf whorl, which helps to spread the disease to the other plants, usually over a period of about three months.
