| Abstract/Contents: | "A grid of 15 ft x 5 ft plots was established in the heavy clay soil fairway of hole #14 at Cattails Golf Club near South Lyon, MI. The actual area sprayed was 12 ft x 12 ft leaving a 1.5-ft buffer on all sides. Four 8-dram vials, half illed with ethylene glycol, were buried in each plot as pitfall traps. The applications were made with an R & D 5-gal backpack CO₂ sprayer at 50 psi with a boom holding four 8008 nozzles. Treatments were applied at a rate of 4 gal/1000 ft² (175 gal/acre). Applications were made on 30 Jun. It was 80°F and sunny with 0-5 mph wind. Vials were place on 23 Jun prior to application and were collected on 30 Jun, 7 Jul, and 14 Jul. Four cup-cutter samples were taken from each plot on 30 Jul. These samples, each 4 1/4" in diam, were then examined for ataenius grubs. The test was started near the end of adult flight, which accounted for the rapid decline of adults in all treatments. FCR 4545, Merit 75 WP, and Temp 75 reduced adult ataenius numbers. Merit 75 and Sevin 80 WSP had the highest impact on larval populations. FCR 4545 and Tempo 75 reduced adult activity but had no effect on larval counts because insecticides were applied too late to prevent egg laying." |
