520 _a"Field Mice as Farm and Orchard Pests" by David E. Lantz is a scientific publication produced by the United States Department of Agriculture in the early 20th century. This farmers' bulletin offers an in-depth examination of the habits, geographic distribution, and management of meadow mice and pine mice, which are agricultural pests causing significant damage to crops and orchards. The book covers the ecological impact of these rodents, detailing their behaviors, breeding patterns, and the extent of destruction they inflict on various types of vegetation, including fruit trees and crops. Lantz also provides practical methods for controlling mouse populations, discussing trapping and poisoning techniques, as well as the importance of cultivating land to deter infestations. Furthermore, the publication emphasizes the need to protect natural predators of field mice, such as owls and other species, to maintain ecological balance and mitigate pest issues effectively.
