| Abstract/Contents: | "Insecticides were evaluated for control of billbugs (BB) on a Kentucky bluegrass research area at the University of Nebraska Agricultural Research and Development Center near Mead, NE. The turf (100% Kentucky bluegrass) was maintained at a height of 2.5 inches. Thatch accumulation (finger compressed) in the plot area was 0.2 inches. Field conditions at the site were: soil type, silty clay loam; soil organic matter, 2-4%; soil pH, 6.2-6.6; water pH, 7.0. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: soil moisture 13.9 %, air temperature 64° F, soil temperature 52° F, relative humidity 39%, wind velocity 12 mph. Plots were 5 Œ 5 ft and the experimental design was a RCB with four replications. Insecticides were applied on 4 May, 2005. Liquid products were applied using a CO2 sprayer at 40 psi and applying 131 gpa finished spray. Post-treatment irrigation was 0.25 inches. A total of 5.98 inches of rain accumulated during the post-treatment period. Treatments were evaluated 63 days after the first treatment (DAT) (6 Jul) by removing from each plot three, 8-inch diameter turf-soil cores (1.05 ft2 total area) to a depth of 3 inches and counting the number of billbug larvae. Data were subjected to ANOVA and means were separated using LSD (P ≤ 0.05). All treatments provided statistically significant reductions of billbug larvae when compared to the untreated control. All rates of DPX-E2Y45 provided excellent billbug control (> 90%). Talstar did not provide acceptable (>80%) billbug control. No phytotoxicity was observed." |
