| Abstract/Contents: | "This trial was conducted on a short-cut rough area at Rockingham Country Club, Newmarket, NH. Each treatment was replicated three times, in 49-ft2 plots, using a RCB design. All insecticidal treatments were granular, and all treatments were applied on 26 Sep using large salt shakers. The grubs were in the third-instar stage. The grass was cut at 1.0 inch. The grass was mowed two days prior to applications, and then on an as needed basis thereafter. There was no precipitation within 24 h prior to treatments. Rain began to fall within 10 min after all applications were made; a total of 0.56 inch of rain fell within 24 h after applications, negating the need for hand irrigation. The soil type was as follows: texture, sandy loam; sand, 69%; silt, 21%; clay, 10%; organic matter, 5.7%; thatch, 0.75 inch. Weather and soil conditions at time of treatment were as follows: sky, overcast; wind, 5-10mph; air temp, 71°F; soil surface temp, 72°F; at 1-inch depth, 73°F; at 2-inch depth, 73°F; pH, 5.4; moisture, 10%. The plots were rated for live JB grubs on 31 Oct (35 DAT). Plots were cut using a D-handle turf tool, cutting 2 ft2 of turf, 2-inches deep, and folding back the turf to reveal the larvae. Larvae that were moribund and/or discolored (blackened) were not counted. Data were subjected to ANOVA and means were separated using DMRT (P ≤ 0.05). All treatments lowered grub populations in relation to the untreated check. Over 15 inches of rain occurred in October. As a result, the products containing pyrethroids (Spectracide Triazicide Soil & Turf Insect Killer, Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer, and Gro Tec Eliminator Ant, Flea and Tick Killer) performed better than expected, based on previous research. The heavy rains helped these products penetrate the sandy soil to reach the grubs. The standard containing trichlorfon, Bayer Advanced 24hr Grub Control, performed extremely well, enhanced by the abundant moisture. Spectracide Grub Stop Once & Done, which contains halofenozide, performed poorly as a late curative treatment. Treatments with imidacloprid (Bayer Advanced Season-Long Grub Control, Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer, AE F106464 00 GR01 B0 and Scotts GrubEx) performed as expected." |
