Abstract/Contents: | "Insecticide formulations containing either diazinon (Scotts Turf Builder with Insect Control, Scotts Lawn Insect Control, Sta-Green Lawn Insect Control) or bifenthrin (SPG99-001, S-8727, S-8728) with a chlorpyrifos (Dursban) standard, were evaluated for control of adult billbugs on plots located at the University of Nebraska Agricultural Research and Development Center near Mead, NE. The turf (100% Kentucky bluegrass) was maintained at a height of 3 inches. Thatch accumulation (finger compressed) in the plot area was 0.5 inches. Field conditions at the study site were: soil type, silty clay loam; soil organic matter, 3-5%; soil pH, 6-7; water pH, 7.0. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: soil moisture 23%; air temperature 72°F; soil temperature 70°F; relative humidity 42%; wind direction and velocity 214° at 7 mph. Plots were 6 x 10 ft and the experimental design was a RCB with four replications. Insecticide treatments were applied on 18 May using a hand shaker. Post-treatment irrigation was 0.125 inches. A total of 8.35 inches of rain accumulaated during the post-treatment period. Treatments applied to adult billbugs were evaluated 48 DAT (07 Jul) by removing from each plot three, 8-inch diam turf-soil cores (2.10 ft² total area) to a depth of 3 inches and counting the number of surviving larvae. The pre-treatment estimate of insect activity was approximately 1 billbug adult/ft². Of the products tested, only the diazinon treatments provided statistically significant reductions in billbug larval numbers compared with the untreated check. No phytotoxicity was observed." |
