About this book
Garden Pests in New Zealand is described as A Popular Manual for Practical Gardeners, Farmers and Schools. The text says a glance at the classification will serve to give some idea of the relative position in the animal kingdom of the animals which will be dealt with in the following pages. The text says the very lowest forms, belonging to the first division, are micro-organisms known as the Protozoa, which inhabit water and soil. The text says the remaining eleven divisions contain all other animals, ranging in size from mere specks to the mass of the elephant.
The text says young trees seem to be the more subject to infestation, from which they may recover as they grow. The text says that, so far as is known, only the pine-infesting form of the aphis occurs in New Zealand. The text says hover-flies can be easily recognised by their manner of flight and are two-winged insects.
