What reading level is Two Destructive Texas Ants book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The use of carbon bisulphid is not practical on account of the very extensive excavations the ants make in the sand. Some may be killed, but effective work can not be done unless the insecticide is forced into the earth by pressure, and this requires special apparatus. Moreover, the expense would be much greater than in the case of the cyanid method just described.
Some years ago certain persons in southern Texas followed the destruction of this ant as a regular business. They used sulphur and ...a special apparatus for forcing the fumes into the nests. The ma- chine consisted of an oven in which the sulphur was burned. The fumes were passed through a pipe by forced draft, and the end of this pipe was inserted into the ground in the middle of the colony.
Before the oven was started all of the openings of the nest were care- fully closed. It is said that remarkable success accompanied this method. It may be found to be advisable to use this method for large areas of the infested lands or where several planters can cooperate.
