Abstract/Contents:"This experiment was conducted on a sod farm in Ashville (Madison Co.), FL that was naturally infested with white grubs. The experimental design consisted of 36, 6 ^D#x 6 ft plots (four replicates per treatment) in RCB design. Treatments were applied on 24 May 2005 and 23 Jun 2005. Liquid treatments were applied using a 4-nozzle, 6-ft boom (at 15.25-inch nozzle spacing) connected to a 32 psi CO2 backpack sprayer. The weather on 24 May: clear sky, dry grass blades and moist soil. Air temperature: 98°F; soil temperature (4 inch depth): 69°F; relative humidity: 44%; wind, 3 mph; soil type: sandy loam; grass ht: 1.5 inch. About 0.1 inch of irrigation immediately followed treatments on 24 May, and another 0.75 inch of irrigation was applied that evening. The weather conditions on 23 Jun: clear sky, dry grass blades and moist soil. Air temperature: 99°F; soil temperature (4 inch depth) 72°F; relative humidity: 54%; wind: <2 mph. About 0.1 inch of irrigation immediately followed the treatments on 23 Jun, and another 0.5 inch of rain fell that night. To determine the effectiveness of each treatment, four 4-inch diam cup-cutter samples (ca. 3-4 inches deep; total area= 0.34 ft2) were destructively sampled per plot on 7 Jul 2005. The no. of white grubs were counted per plot. Data were analyzed with an ANOVA after being square root transformed. Nontransformed means were presented. Means were separated using Tukey's HSD (P ≤ 0.05). Significantly more white grubs were found in untreated check plots, compared to all other treatments. Treatment timing and rates of application did not affect product efficacy. No phytotoxicity was detected on any of the treated plots 1 DAT or 7 DAT."
