Abstract
Char waste water, a waste product in sugar refining, derived by water washing spent animal charcoal (char), is useful as a sporulation medium for the production of Bacillus popilliae spores. Bacillus popilliae spores are useful as a microbial insecticide in the control of Japanese beetles since B. popilliae spores cause milky disease in the Japanese beetle and other insects, such as the European chafer.
