Abstract

1. Of 4,112 earth worms, 3,480 were classified as Eisenia foetidae, and 3,277 of the species were infested with the larvae of Metastrongylus apri. 2. Cresol and $CaCN_2$ were found effective in the insecticidal test of earthworms. 3. The nose ring was effective, in pigs, to prevent digging and eating the earthworms and resulted a lower lungworm incidence in pigs. 4. The best place to put the nose ring was the nasal septum.
