Abstract/Contents: | Discusses emerging products that may be beneficial in integrated pest management (IPM). States that Allectus, released by Bayer Environmental Sciences and FMC Corp., "contained the active ingredients of two popular insecticides Talstar and Merit. There are several perceived benefits to this product that include its broad spectrum of control that has the potential to control both surface and soil insect as did some of the...more toxic chemistries, such as diazinon." States that a possible consideration "that concerns some people about using combination products is that in some instances, [one] might be applying two active ingredients and only getting a benefit from one of them." Suggests that "a combination product might be a great choice for scarab grub, black turfgrass ataenius and cutworm protection on golf putting greens or white grubs, mole crickets, fire ants, and even armyworm or webworm populations in other areas on a golf course." |
