Abstract/Contents:"Hunting billbugs have recently emerged as a widespread pest of warm-season turfgrasses. Traditional management strategies developed for other billbug species, such as the bluegrass billbug, in cool-season turfgrass are not effective against hunting billbugs in warm-season turfgrass. Limited field trials in warm-season turfgrass for hunting billbug control found little to no differences among insecticides used, primarily due to insufficient billbug numbers collected. Therefore, a technique was developed using plastic containers filled with turfgrass to determine the efficacy of several insecticides on adult and larval hunting billbugs. This technique allowed for >90% of the adults and >85% of the larvae released into respective containers to be recaptured after 7 days. Products containing bifenthrin, clothianidin, cyantraniliprole, or the combination of bifenthrin + clothianidin produced 89.5, 83.3, 82.2, and 85.4% mortality in adult billbugs, respectively. Overall percent control of the larval stage was too low to develop control recommendations, where imidacloprid produced the highest mortality at 33.6%. Turfgrass managers should implement a monitoring plan to identify periods of peak adult hunting billbug activity and schedule insecticide applications during these times."
