| Abstract/Contents: | "Fifteen by 15 ft plots were established on the heavily infested fairway of hole #14 of Fox Squirrel Golf and Country Club in Boiling Spring Lakes. Treatments with 3 replicates were randomly assigned to the plots. Insecticides were applied on the afternoon of 4 Aug. Granular formulations were applied using shaker jars and sprays were applied using a backpack sprayer with 8002 nozzles at 40 psi. Soil was moist at application from rain the previous night and the entire test was irrigated after the treatment to wet the soil to a depth of 0.5 inch. Air temperature was 85 degrees F, ans soil temperature was 86 degrees F. Soil type was mineral with 0.7% humic matter and a pH of 5.9. All plots were evaluated on 25 Aug (21 DAT) and 8 Sep (35 DAT). Evaluations were performed by making 3 random damage grid ratings (0-9) of freshly occurring damage in each plot. All data were transformed square-root(X + 5) prior to analysis. Damage evaluations at 21 DAT indicate the Talstar 10WP 0.2 lb (AI)/acre treatment, Talstar 0.2G, 0.5 lb (AI)/acre treatment, both Pennington 0.2G treatments, and the Dylox 6.2G treatment provided no control as compared to the untreated plots while all other insecticide treatments reduced mole cricket damage. The Talstar 10WP high rate provided better control than Talstar 10WP at 0.2 lb (AI)/acre, Talstar 0.2G at 0.25 (AI)/acre, both Pennington 0.2G treatments or Dylox 6.2G. The low rate of Talstar 10WP gave better contrrol than the Talstar 10WP at 0.2 (AI)/acre, the high rate of either Talstar 0.2G or Pennington 0.2G, and the Dylox 6.2G treatment. Damage evaluations at 35 DAT indicate that the 0.2 lb (AI)/acre treatment of Talstar 10WP, the low rate of Bistar 1.75 EC, the low rate of Talstar 0.2G, both rates of Pennington 0.2G, the Merit 75WP treatment, and the Dylox treatment provided no control as compared to the untreated plots. All other insecticide treatments provided some reduction in damage with Talstar 10WP at 0.4 lb (AI)/acre giving better control than the high rate of Bistar 1.75 EC and the high rate of Talstar 0.2G. No phytotoxicity was observed." |
