The book is a comprehensive study of the wireworm, a destructive pest that attacks crops and causes significant damage to agricultural production. The wireworm is the larval stage of the click beetle, and Comstock covers the life cycle, habits, and behavior of the insect in detail.

The book is written in a scientific style and includes numerous illustrations and photographs to aid in identification and understanding of the wireworm.
