| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the insecticides such as pyrethroids, halofenozide, pyriproxyfen, fenoxycarb, spinosad, and fipronil. Includes how they work and how they can be challenging to use. Explains that they generally cover a less broad spectrum and require precise timing. Also discusses their benefits, including lower toxicity to mammals, and reduced off-target effects. States that "these new tools do have a fit in the context of turfgrass IPM. Learn how to use them effectively and I believe we can successfully fill some of the gaps created by recent decisions associated with the Food Quality Protection Act." |
