Abstract/Contents:"Insecticides were evaluated for control of CB on a buffalograss research area at the University of Nebraska Agricultural Research and Development Center near Mead, NE. The turf (100% buffalograss) was maintained at a height of 3.0 inches. Thatch accumulation in the plot area was 0.10 inch. Field conditions at the site were: soil type, Tomek silt loam; soil organic matter, 3-5%; soil pH, 6-7; water pH, 7.0. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: soil moisture, 15.6%; air temp, 76°F; soil temp, 73°F; relative humidity, 49%; wind velocity, 5 mph. Plots were 5 ft Œ 5 ft and the experimental design was an RCB with five replications. Insecticides were applied on 30 Jun, 2008. Liquid products were applied using a CO2 sprayer at 40 psi and applying 174 gpa finished spray. Granule insecticides were applied using a hand shaker. Post-treatment irrigation was 0.15 inch. A total of 8.11 inches of rain accumulated during the post-treatment period. Formulations were evaluated for efficacy 7 DAT (7 Jul), 21 DAT (21 Jul), and 80 DAT (18 Sep) (refer to Tables 1- 3) by vacuuming from each plot two 8-inch diam areas (0.7 ft2 total area per plot). Samples were placed in Berlese funnels for 48 hr and surviving chinch bugs were collected in ethanol then counted. All treatments in Table 1 (7 DAT), except 0504-12 and 0504-13, provided statistically significant reductions in chinch bugs when compared to the untreated check. All treatments in Table 2 (21 DAT), except for 0504-12, 0504-13, and 0444-024 G, provided excellent (>90%) chinch bug control. No phytotoxicity was observed. All treatments in Table 2 (21 DAT), except 0504-13, provided statistically significant reductions in chinch bugs when compared to the untreated check. All treatments in Table 3 (80 DAT), except 0504-12, 0504-13, 0444-024 G, and 0486-02, provided statistically significant reductions in chinch bugs when compared to the untreated check. All other treatments provided excellent (>90%) chinch bug control. No phytotoxicity was observed."
