| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the annual bluegrass weevil (ABW), Listronotus maculicollis, stating that it "is a serious and difficult-to-control pest of close-cut annual bluegrass (Poa annua) on greens, tees and fairways in the Northeast [United States]." Provides potential methods of avoiding the development of insecticide resistance, including to: "1) regularly rotate insecticide from different insecticide classes"; "2) not exceed label rates"; and "3) avoid 'wall-to-wall' applications." Mentions that "with the increasing pressure to reduce pesticide use on golf courses, there is a dire need to develop ABW control options with reduced environmental and health hazards and that are more IPM [integrated pest management]-compatible and, ideally, more sustainable." Concludes that "turfgrass entomologists throughout the Northeast [United States] are...collaborating to develop a better understanding of ABW biology, better ways of predicting and monitoring ABW populations and finding safer ABW management tools." |
