| Abstract/Contents: | "The experiment was conducted on a golf course driving range in Mifflin County with a natural population of NMC grubs to determine speed of kill and curative potential. The turfgrass area consisted primarily of Kentucky bluegrass (30%) and annual bluegrass (70%). Treatment plots were 9 x 6 ft, arranged in a RCB design and replicated three times. Liquid formulations were applied by using a CO₂ sprayer with 4 8002VS TeeJet nozzles mounted on a 6 ft boom, operating at 28 psi, and applied in 817 ml of water/54 ft² or delivering 4.0 gal/1000 ft². Granular formulations were applied with a hand-held shaker and mixed with fine top dressing sand to facilitate product distribution. At treatment time (9 Sep), the following soil and environmental conditions existed: air temperature, 63°F; soil temperature at 1-inch depth, 72°F; soil temperature at 2-inch, 70°F; RH, 63%; amount of thatch, 0.125 inch; soil textural class, loam; soil particle analysis: sand, 49.2%; silt, 39.4%; clay, 11.3%; organic matter, 4.1%; soil water content (percent by wt), 18.7; water pH, 7.0; soil pH, 4.9; application time, late - morning; and skies partly cloudy. Immediately after application treatments were irrigated in with 0.275 inch of water. Post-treatment irrigation and rain occurred as follows: 11 Sep, ca. 0.25 inch; 13 Sep, ca. 0.25 inch; and 22 Sep, ca. 0.5 inch. Post-treatment counts were made on 14 Sep, 23 Sep, and 7 Oct. Three sod samples 1 ft² each, were randomly taken from each replicate on sampling dates 14 Sep and 23 Sep while two sod samples were randomly taken from each replicate on 7 Oct. The total number of NMC living and dead grubs/ft² was recorded. An average of 20.0/ft² third instar NMC grubs was recorded in the experimental area on 9 Sep. Two treatments provided significant NMC grub death on 14 Sep (5 DAT) while all treatments provided significant mortality by 23 Sep (14 DAT). On sampling date 7 Oct (28 DAT), all treatments resulted in a significant reduction of NMC grubs. No phytotoxicity was noted." |
