Abstract/Contents: | "This experiment was conducted to compare the effectiveness of pyrethroid formulations with dursban for control of a natural HCB population on an old established lawn in Somerset. The turfgrass area consisted primarily of fine leafed fescue. Treatment plots were 5 x 6 ft arranged in a RCB design and replicated three times. Granular formulations were applied with a hand held shaker with top dressing sand used to provide even distribution of product. Liquid formulations were applied by using a CO₂ compressed air sprayer with 4 8002VS TeeJet nozzles mounted on a 6 ft boom, operating at 28 psi, and applied in 227 ml of water/30 ft or delivering 2 gal/1000 ft. At treatment time (18 Aug), the following soil and environmental conditions existed: air temperature, 78°F; soil temperature at 1 inch depth, 73°F; soil temperature at 2 inch depth, 69°F; RH, 79%; amount of thatch, 1.0 inch; soil textural class, silt loam; soil particle size analysis: 28.8% sand, 57.7% silt, 13.5% clay; water content (percent by wt), 14.6%; organic matter, 5.8%; water pH, 7.0; soil pH, 6.5; application time, mid morning; and partly cloudy skies. Immediately after treatment the experimental area received 0.055 inch of irrigation. HCB was sampled by driving a 6-inch diam stainless steel cylinder into the turf, filling it with water, and counting the number of HCB nymphs and adults floating to the surface during a 10-min period on 24 Aug and 31 Aug. Two floatation samples were taken randomly from each replicate, and the total number of HCB from each sample was recorded and converted to a ft count. An average of 177.0 HCB nymphs and adults/ft² was recorded 18 Aug before treatment. Posttreatment counts completed 24 Aug and 21 Aug indicated that all treatments provided significant control. Talstar F and PL G formulations applied at the high rate provided excellent extended residual control of HCB. No phytotoxicity was noted." |
