What reading level is A Study in Humbugology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Assuming that the wheat moth doesn't sip water and nectar to be found on plants, it may yet succumb in paying numbers to a trap torch giving forth an inviting smell by fer- menting sweet fluid, which means the presence of alcohol.
—34— After the sheaves have been stacked in the barn, it would be feasible to thus operate a torch there. It could be lighted out- side and then hung or hoisted up to a safe place in the barn.
Barns cannot be fumigated. Nor can moths be kept away.
Hence the most promi...sing method for control in barns pre- vious to thrashing would seem to be using a trap torch for a couple of hours once a week or so. All that is necessary is to put enough gasoline in to run the length of time desired and hang the apparatus up in a place made safe, when it will run its time without attention.
In mills this course will keep infestation down, doing away with fumigation entirely or partly. If the moth sips liquids, in mills another, easier way is feasible. A solitary elec- tric light of low candle power left burning of nights with some poisoned sweet scented fluid nearby could be made to exert a daily reduction of the various adult flying insects that pass through the mill.
