Abstract/Contents: | "The turfgrass area consisted primarily of fine leafed fescue. Treatment plots were 5 x 6 ft arranged in a randomized complete block design, replicated 3 times. Liquid formulations were applied by using a hand held sprinkling can with 2 gal of water. At treatment time (25 Jul) the following soil and environmental conditions existed: air temperature, 81°F; soil temperature at 1 inch depth, 82.0°F; soil temperature at 2 inch depth, 75.0°F; RH, 61%; amount of thatch, 0.5-1.0 inches; soil textural class, silt loam; soil particle size analysis: 28.8% sand, 50.4% silt, 20.9% clay; soil moisture (oven dry weight), 23.5%; organic matter, 7.9%; water pH, 7.0; soil pH, 5.8; application time, early evening; and overcast skies. Hairy chinch bugs were sampled by driving a 6 inch-diam stainless steel cylinder into the turf, filling it with water, and counting the number of chinch bug nymphs and adults floating to the surface during a 15 min period on 2 Aug or a 10 min period on 8 Aug. Three flotation samples were taken randomly from each replicate, and the total number of chinch bugs from each sample was recorded and converted to a ft² count. An average of 90.3 hairy chinch bug nymphs and adults/ft² was recorded 25 Jul before treatment. Posttreatment count completed on 2 Aug indicated that four treatments provided significant control while six treatments provided significant control on 8 Aug. No phytotoxicity was noted." |
