| Abstract/Contents: | Describes control options for white grubs. Reviews basic grub biology (life cycle and damage caused). Discusses curative controls (such as organophosphate or carbamate insecticides), and provides application advice. Also highlights preventive control options, focusing on new active ingredients imidacloprid and halofenozide. "Imidacloprid belongs to a new class of synthetic insecticides called chloronicotinyls, which have selective activity on insects' nervous systems ... Halofenozide belongs to another new class of synthetic insecticides called molt-accelerating compounds." |
