| Abstract/Contents: | Reports that because of the drought during the summer of 2012, more intense irrigation programs and methods were implemented. Notes that for those courses that had irrigation programs to keep turf alive, more insects populated the turf due to the dependency on water. Mentions that Japanese beetles prefer low-cut, irrigated turf and could cause damage if not preventively taken care of. Describes the conditions for Japanese beetle and egg survival, including the temperature and soil moisture levels. States that "for those areas of turf that were irrigated or somehow were fortunate enough to receive rainfall, but were not treated with a preventative insecticide, they were at a much greater risk of having grubs and likely experienced vertebrate animal feeding damage." |
