Book excerpt: Excerpt from Investigations on the Control of the European Corn Borer When the eggs are deposited upon corn plants which have reached the tassel stage, the newly hatched larvae usually do not attack the tas'sel, nor do they feed to any extent upon the surface of the leaf blades; under these Circumstances they enter the stalk directly, or the thick midrib of the more tender leaf blades. If the plant has developed an ear, the newly hatched larvae frequently feed upon the tender tips of the husks and upon the silk, or work: their way down between the silks into the ear and feed upon the grain and cob.
