Abstract/Contents: | Highlights the process of using Integrated Pest Management and insect monitoring for control of grubs, fire ants and mole crickets. Recommends learning about grub life cycles and proper pest identification. Also suggests methods for control of red imported fire ants and mentions that the ants will only collect fresh bait. "For effective control of mole crickets, make insecticide applications when the night temperatures are at least 60 degrees." |
