Abstract/Contents: | Discusses neonicotinoid, stating that "these chemicals resemble natural nicotine, and these molecules bind to the nicotinic-acetychloline receptor sites of post-synaptic nerves. The result is that neural transmission between two nerves is greatly restricted or even stopped." Reports that "data, based primarily on imidacloprid, indicated that neonicotinoids have excellent activity against sucking insects (primarily Hemiptera), Coleoptera, and hymenopterous...pests, but poor activity against lepidopterous pests." Discusses how "concerning hairy chinch bug control...imidacloprid, clothianidin, thiamethoxam and acetamiprid and all produce excellent results in applications applied in June, July or August." Suggests that "control of mole crickets with neonicotinoids has been insonsistent unless [one] carefully [looks] at the timing of applications." Concludes that "in...sod webworm control studies, imidacloprid has always resulted in poor control, but applications of clothianidin, thiamethoxam and acetamiprid have been quite effective." |
