Abstract/Contents: | Details a study done to observe the effect of low amounts of nematode treatments applied to cranefly larvae as opposed to high amounts. Results include that "a total of 88 cranefly larvae were found in 38 sq. ft. of sod, an overall density of 2.3 cranefly larvae per sq. ft. which would not be considered a 'high' population." Concludes that "There was no significant difference between the high and low rates of nematode treatment. In addition, there was no significant difference in numbers of leatherjackets (cranefly larvae) between treated and control plots." |
