Abstract/Contents: | "The study was located [on the] lawns of the Agricultural Technical Institute at Wooster, Ohio. Insecticides were applied 15 Jun to plots 10 x 10 ft arranged in a randomized complete block, replicated 4 times. Granular insecticides were applied using a drop spreader and liquids using a CO2 sprayer with Teejet 8010LP nozzles at 30 psi that delivered a volume of 3 gal/1000 ft2. The experimental area received no posttreatment irrigation. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows. Billbugs: early instars present, no pretreatment count. Turf: 3 degree slope, dry, 3 in height, 50% Kentucky bluegrass, 50% perennial ryegrass. Thatch: moist, 1/2 inch, dense. Soil: moist, 68 degrees F at 1 inch and 55 degress F at 3 inches. Weather: sunny, 73 degrees F, 5-8 mph. Water: pH 4.9. Billbug efficacy data taken from each plot 9 Jul (28 DAT) were based on the number of live billbug larvae and pupae in 6, 4 1/4 inches in diam samples from each plot. Efficacy data for control of a subsequent JB [Japanese beetle] and NMC [northern masked chafer] larval population (appx 70% JB: 30% NMC) taken 5 & 7 Oct was based on the number of live grubs in 6, 7 x 7 in samples from each plot. No phytotoxicity was observed." |
