Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of Provaunt as a possible method for controling black cutworm and sod webworm. States that "Provaunt is a...product from DuPont that contains the active ingredient indoxacarb." Explains that "indoxacarb is a member of a...class of chemistry, the oxadiaxines." Reports that "Provaunt is effective against most surface feeding insects including sod webworms, black cutworm, and armyworms. One of the many beneficial attributes of Provaunt is that it stops feeding damage quickly, within minutes to a few hours after application." Also states that "in addition to its excellent performance, Provaunt has an excellent environmental and toxicological profile. Indoxacarb is classified as a reduced-risk active ingredient by the United State [States] Environmental Protection Agency [EPA]. It also has no required buffer zone around water unlike some of the synthetic pyrethroids." |
