| Abstract/Contents: | "Acephate (Orthene) and bifenthrin (Talstar) were applied at three different moon phases for controlling nymphs and adults of tawny and southern mole crickets (Scapteriscus vicinus and S. borellii) on a fairway of Carolina Shores Country Club in Brunswick County, NC. Plots 20 ft x 20 ft were established in areas showing relatively uniform mole cricket damage. Acephate and bifenthrin were applied on September 03 (new moon), September 08 (quarter moon), and September 17 (full moon) using a Turf Gator boom sprayer delivering 40 gal/ac at 50 psi with ten 8003vs nozzles. Pre-irrigation (about 0.5 in) was applied to the plots treated with acephate and post-irrigation was applied to the plots treated with bifenthrin. Soapy water flush samplings indicated that the population was approximately 82°F MC and 18% TMC. Air and soil temperature at the time of application for new moon, quarter moon, and full moon were 87°F and 84°F, 82°F and 78°F, and 79°F and 76°F, respectively. Soil at the test site was classified as mineral soil with pH 6.5-6.6 and 0.81 to 0.92% humic matter. The grid rating system developed by Dr. Pat Cobb at Auburn University was used to rate mole cricket damage before and after insecticide application by making five random damage grid ratings (Cobb and Mack, 1989) per replicate. Damage was rated on a 0-9 scale based on the occurrence of fresh damage in the nine subgrids of 1 x 1 m frame where 0 = no damage and 9 = severe damage. Five grid ratings per replicate were made. All data were transformed (arcsine) prior to ANOVA and Waller-Duncan K-ratio T test. Mole cricket damage reductions from application of acephate and bifenthrin were not significant[ly] different under three moon phases from 7 DAT to 28 DAT." |
