Abstract/Contents: | "When scarab grubs reach a level of population, management action must be taken to avoid damage to turfgrass. When the cost of pest damage reaches the cost of pest control at a critical pest density, the economic threshold is reached. Intangible considerations include aesthetic and environmental concerns. Sampling for density indicates when and how pest control should be done. The authors describe three scenarios for fine, medium, and coarse pest control approaches depending on the physical size and scope of the area under control. Rules for considering the most appropriate treatment are discussed." |
