Abstract/Contents: | "Several insects are common in turf in North Carolina, but only a few cause enough damage to require control measures. Grubs, mole crickets and billbugs live in the soil and feed on the roots on the roots of grasses. Sod webworms, armyworms, and cutworms feed on leaves and stems, while chinch bugs, leafhoppers, spittle bugs and scale insects suck juices from the plants." |
