Abstract/Contents: | Discusses insect pests on Canadian golf course turf. States that "insects are not generally considered major pests to golf course turf across Canada, but at times they can cause extensive damage." Mentions the introduction of turf pests from one region of Canada to another, stating that "in 1996 and 2002, the European crane fly was found in Ontario and Quebec respectively. European crane flies were previously a pest in coastal British Columbia and some parts of Atlantic Canada. In 2001, the European chafer - which was considered a pest only in Ontario and Quebec - was found in the Vancouver area." Highlights region-specific insect pests and lists insecticides registered for use on turf golf course pests in Canada, including carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, deltamethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, imidacloprid, and spinosad. |
