| Abstract/Contents: | "Effects of irrigation quantity and irrigation timing on the efficacy of bifenthrin (Talstar GC flowable) and imidacloprid (Merit 75 WP) for controlling nymphs of the mole crickets Scapteriscus borellii, and S. vicinus were investigated at Oyster Bay Golf Course in Brunswick County, N. C. Plots 15 ft x 15 ft were established on a driver range showing relatively uniform damage from the infestation of mole cricket nymphs. A CRD was used in the test and each treatment was replicated four times. Insecticides were applied on 11 Aug using a Turf-Gator mounted boom sprayer delivering 23 gal/acre using nine 8003vs nozzles. Soapy water flush sampling indicated that the population was approximately 94% southern and 6% tawny mole crickets. The soil and air temperature at the time of application were 82°F and 89°F, respectively. Soil at the test site was classified as mineral soil with pH 6.7 and humic matter ranging from 0.51 to 0.66%. A plug-in hose with a calibrated nozzle, which was connected to the irrigation head, was used to irrigate each plot manually after insecticide application (post-irrigation) in the irrigation quantity test. By controlling the duration of each irrigation, we applied the designed amount of water to a plot. Three irrigation quantities were applied: 0.18 inch, 0.36 inch, and 72 [0.72] inches. Two irrigation timings were tested: 1) irrigation 5 min after insecticide application, and 2) irrigation 1 h after insecticide application. The irrigation was applied using the irrigation system on the golf course. Plots were evaluated from 11 Aug to 11 Sep (0 to 30 DAT) by making five random damage ratings per replicate. Damage was rated on a 0-9 scale based on the occurrence of fresh damage on the nine subgrids of a 1 m² grid frame where 0 = no damage and 9 = severe damage. Five grid ratings per replicate were averaged. All data were transformed (square root of X + 0.5) prior to ANOVA and Waller-Duncan K-ratio T test. Bifenthrin and imidaclopid treatment followed by 0.18 inch of irrigation provided significant mole cricket control on 18 DAT and 30 DAT compared with the untreated check. Imidacloprid with 0.36 inch of irrigation showed the least mole cricket damage rating on 30 DAT. Bifenthrin with irrigation 1 h after treatment and imidacloprid with irrigation either 5 min or 1 h after treatment provided significant mole cricket control on 18 DAT compared with the untreated check in the irrigation timing test. Imidacloprid with irrigation 1 h after treatment showed the lowest mole cricket damage rating on 18 DAT. All treatments of bifenthrin and imidacloprid under two irrigation timings showed significant mole cricket control compared with the untreated check, and bifenthrin and imidacloprid with irrigation 1 h after treatment had the lowest mole cricket damage ratings on 30 DAT." |
