Burning the foliage?

19 years ago

It has been suggested to me that one method for controlling iris borer (and no 'cides) is to burn the foliage early in the spring. Have you had experience with this? How is it done? What tool do you use? Please provide lots of detail because it sounds like a strange thing to do, a bit counter-intuitive. But then, I have heard of burning tall grass prairies, maybe this is kind of similar.
