Abstract/Contents:Suggests that "ants can be quite problematic and disruptive pests on golf courses, especially in high-profile areas such as putting greens, tees and fairways." Describes potential turf damage that can be caused ants and discusses possible control options. Explains that "because throughout much of the growing season, the queen ant, with her eggs and larvae (young) are located underground in nests, surface applications of contact insecticides merely only control workers on the turf surface." Mentions the use of short- and long-residual insecticides, and granular ant baits.
