Reducing Botrytis in Container-Grown Western Larch by Vacuuming Dead Needles

Needles shed during fall from container-grown western larch seedlings can be removed with an ordinary shop vacuum, reducing the potential for Botrytis infection. Nurseries that use this method as part of an integrated pest management system have avoided fungicide treatments for Botrytis. Tree Planters' Notes 43(2):30-32; 1992.
