| Abstract/Contents: | "An experimental compound under development by DuPont was applied to golf course fairway turf on 12 May and sampled 7 Jun to determine the efficacy of the compound against the first generation of annual bluegrass weevil (ABW). The test was conducted at Sleepy Hollow Country Club, Scarborough, NY. The conditions at the time of application were as follows: air temp, 55-60° F; soil temp, 61° F; water pH, 6.0; light NE wind; scattered clouds. Treatment plots were 6 ^D#x 6 ft, replicated five times, and arranged in a CRB design. All sprayable formulations were applied with a watering can (3 qt water per plot). All granular formulations were applied using a jar with a perforated lid. Plots were irrigated with 0.1 inch of water within 1 h after application. Product efficacy was evaluated on 7 Jun by removing ten 1.85-inch diameter cores from near the center of each plot and using a saline solution to extract all stages except eggs. Each core was recorded separately, and all counts were included in statistical analyses (Fisher's Protected LSD, P < 0.0001). Adults were not included in the analysis because of their mobility. The insect population in the untreated check plots was well above the commonly accepted threshold population (30 to 80 larvae per sq ft). All treatments reduced insect populations significantly, including Talstar SC and Talstar EZ G, which were included as industry standards. However, all but one of the granular formulations had significantly higher ABW populations than all of the sprayable formulation treatments." |
