Abstract/Contents:"This experiment was conducted on fairways 11, 12, 13 and 18 at the Jackson County Golf Course in Jackson County on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. Soil type was a sandy clay loam. Mole crickets were mid-instar nymphs. Experimental design was a RCB with 4 replications. Each replication was 2,000 ft². Treatments were applied on 6 Sep. Granular formulations were applied with a Scotts Pro Turf, handpushed spreader. Rainfall and/or irrigation from 6 Sep through 3 Oct was a total of 9.03 inches during this study. All plots received 0.25 inch water within 1 hour after applications. Mole cricket damage was rated using a 1 m² frame divided into nine equal, square-shaped sections. The frame was placed on the ground at 10 locations/replicate. The presence of mounds and tunnels was determined visually and by touch. Damage ranged from zero (no damage in any of the nine sections) to nine (nine sections contained mounds and/or tunnels). Pretreatment counts were made on 6 Sep and post-treatment counts were made on 12, 19, 26 Sep and 3 Oct. In almost all the treatments, the mole cricket damage declined with the increase in time-interval after application of insecticides. By the last evaluation time i.e., 27 DAT, the following treatments had significantly less damage than the untreated check: SPG95-12, SPG95-13, SPG95-14, SPG95-15, SPG95-17 and Talstar 0.2G @ 4.6 lb. The remaining treatments were statistically similar to the untreated check. No phytotoxicity was observed on fairways."
