Are Women Allowed to Check for Bugs?

Insects are quite common in vegetables, and one must check certain known-to-be-infested types before consumption (שו"ע יו"ד סי' פ"ד ס"ח). Is one allowed to rely on their wife - or any woman - to carry out this procedure?
The Maharsha"l writes the one indeed cannot. Quoting his words, the Sha"ch (סי' פ"ד שם ס"ק ל"ה) writes (in the name of the Ram"a in Toras Chatas) that this is not the minhag, rather women DO check all produce and we duly rely on them.
Picking up the discussion, the Aruch Hashulchan writes "...regarding the essential matter, I am in shock: how could one say ח"ו that our women are lax with matters of issur just out of laziness?! Do we not see their tireless efforts with all matters of issur! .... In fact, one of the great sages write that today common sense dictates that we can rely on the woman's methodical checking more than that of their male counterparts who are preoccupied and hurrying to work..."
