Treatments were applied to single-tree plots in a randomized block design consisting of 3 replicates of ‘Yorking’ and 2 replicates of ‘Golden Delicious’. Trees were planted to a spacing of 20 x 20 ft and were 19 years old. All treatments were applied with a Myers Mity Mist sprayer calibrated to deliver 100 gal/acre, driven at 2 mph, except for HHE-3736 70 WG and Savey 50 WP which were applied dilute to run-off with a high pressure handgun at approximately 4 gal of spray per tree. Application dates varied between treatments and are as listed in the tables. All plots received a regular maintenance schedule of fungicides (captan 50 WP, Nova 40 WP, Penncozeb 80 WP and Topsin 85 DF) and nutrients (Solubor and CaCl). Post-bloom insecticides (Guthion 35 WP, Lannate 1.8 L) were applied at 1- to 2-wk intervals beginning at petal-fall in early May. Effectiveness of treatments on ERM was evaluated by counting mites at approximately weekly intervals during the season on samples of 25 leaves/tree (125 leaves/treatment). Effects of treatments on SP were measured by 3 minute counts of adults and larvae around the periphery of trees. Russet ratings are based on 30 ‘Golden Delicious’ apples/replicate, 60/treatment. Fruits were rated as 0 (no russet), 1 (raised lenticels), 2 (1-10% russeted surface), 3 (11-25% russeted surface), 4 (26-50% russeted surface), or 5 (>51% russeted surface). Possible ranges are 0-30 (none to raised lenticels), 31-60 (raised lenticels to 1-10% russeted surface), 61-90 (1-10% to 11-25% russeted surface), 91-120 (11-25% to 26-50% russeted surface), and 121-150 (26-50% to >51% russeted surface).

The experiment was located in Gadsden Co., Florida. Plot size was 1 row x 27 ft. Experimental design was a randomized complete block with 4 replications, although the Penncap M 2 treatment was replicated only twice. Spray insecticide treatments were applied on 8, 15, and 22 May with a 1-row, CO2-powered backpack sprayer that was equipped with 5, D7-45 nozzles/row. The chemicals were applied at about 60 psi, with the amount of spray about 63 gal/acre. The density of thrips in tomato flowers was estimated in each plot 1, 3, 5, and 7 days after treatment. Ten flowers were randomly collected in each plot on each sample date. Each sample was placed in a prelabeled vial containing 70% ethyl alcohol. The number of thrips in each sample was determined by searching the contents of each vial under a 7 to 15 x dissecting microscope.

Ants collected by use of an aspirator (harvester and pyramid ants) or by hand (carpenter ants) from active colonies in the City of Albuquerque. The ants were collected on 17 Nov and kept overnight in plastic collection vials in the laboratory. Carpenter ants were collected the following morning. Ten each of the three species were placed in separate 10 cm plastic petri dishes and refrigerated. Each group of 10 ants was randomly assigned for treatment with Triumph 4 EC at 11.2 ml per 28.3 m2 or held as checks. Treatments were applied by placing the ants on a sheet of newsprint paper or directly on a cement surface and passing the boom of a CO2 sprayer approx. 60 cm above. The boom had 3 X-4 tips spaced 50.8 cm apart. Operated at a pressure of 350 kpc and a speed of 8 km/h, the sprayer delivered 47.1 liters per ha. Within 2 min after spraying, ants were picked up by hand or with a portable [Black and Decker™] hand vacuum and replaced into a petri dish. Knockdown was observed at 2 h and mortality (no movement when prodded with a pencil) observed at 7 h and daily for 6 d. Two to 3 drops of tap water were placed in all petri dishes on days 4-6. Normal day length (10 h) and temperature of 12.8-21.1°C were maintained after treatment.

This study was conducted on a creeping bentgrass golf green at the Campbell House Golf Club, Lexington, KY. The green had been topdressed with sand over native soil. Plots (10 X 10 ft) were established in a RCB design with 5 replicates. The target population consisted of mixed instars of both black and bronzed cutworms. Treatments were applied as surface sprays (5 gal/1000 ft2) using pump-type, backpack sprayers equipped with a fan-type nozzle. Plots were treated on 13 Aug. Dursban plots were treated at 11 AM with the spray allowed to dry on the turf surface. Nematode plots were treated 2 h later, followed immediately by irrigation with 0.25 inch of water to all plots. Temperature at the time of the nematode treatment was 74°F, with 76% relative humidity and 4 mph winds. Cutworms were sampled 7 DAT. A frame (6.6 x 6.6 ft) made from PVC pipe was first placed in the center of each plot. Four gallons of an irritant drench (1 oz of Joy liquid detergent/ gal water) were applied to the area defined by the frame using a sprinkling can, and the number of cutworms that surfaced within 10 min was recorded.

The test was conducted at the Wes Watkins Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Lane, Oklahoma. ‘Lemon Drop’ summer squash plants were transplanted 2 Jun, into beds with black plastic mulch and irrigated with a surface trickle irrigation system. Plots were arranged in a randomized complete block design replicated 4 times. Each replicate consisted of a single row of 6 plants (2-ft plant spacing) on 6 ft centers. Rows were separated by 10 ft buffers. Foliar sprays were applied 11 and 19 Jul with a CO2-powered backpack sprayer mounted with 2 TX-18 nozzles calibrated to deliver 21.36 gallons per acre. Efficacy was evaluated by counting squash bug nymphs on 3 randomly selected plants per plot and alate and apterous melon aphids on 12 leaves/plot from the 3 plants with 4 leaves selected randomly from the central section of each plant. Counts were made 15 Jul (4 days after first treatment), 18 Jul (7 days after first treatment), 23 Jul (4 days after second treatment), and 26 Jul (7 days after second treatment). The data were subject to ANOVA and LSD.

Cabbage was transplanted on 16 Jun at the Vegetable Crops Research Farm near Geneva, NY. Plots consisted of two 10 ft rows on 36 inch centers with 18 inch plant spacing. Treatments were replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. A backpack sprayer with a one-row boom, having 3 nozzles per row with HC 12 hollow cone tips, and delivering 38 gal/acre at 40 psi and 2 mph, was used to apply applications of each treatment. Javelin at 1.0 lb/acre was added to M-pede, Cygon and the check treatments to control Lepidoptera and insure readable plants at harvest. Bond sticker-spreader was applied at .01% v/v with all treatments. Treatments were applied on 27 Jul, 6, 14, 27 Aug, 4, 11, 18 Sep and 2 Oct. Harvest evaluations for thrips were made on 8 Oct. Evaluations for thrips damage were made by randomly selecting 2 mature heads per plot, cutting them in half along the core, and peeling back 10 layers. Each layer was assessed for the presence of thrips injury. The overall damage rating (intensity of injury plus the number of layers injured) was also made on a scale of 0 (no damage) to 4 (each of the 10 leaves severely injured). Data were analyzed by a two-way ANOVA. For analysis of damage ratings we used the average damage rating per replicate, transformed this to a rank, and analyzed ranks. For layers injured, we used the average number of layers per two plants in a replicate and then analyzed these averages.

Sweet corn was planted on 10 Sep with 10 in. between plants in double rows spaced 10 inches apart on raised beds mulched with polyethylene film. Three 240 ft beds on 6 ft centers were divided into four replicate blocks, containing nine, 15 ft single row treatment plots and one, 15 ft control plot (5 ft per row). One neonate fall armyworm was placed in each leaf whorl 1 week prior to treatment. Six weekly applications were made beginning on 2 Oct. Biosafe (nematodes) was applied the first 3 weeks only, followed by Lannate on subsequent dates. The first Biosafe application was made by automatic pipette to the whorl (into which 3.5 g of washed sand had already been introduced in treatment 3), and subsequently by hand-held trigger sprayer. Dipel 10 G was applied directly to the whorl from pre-weighed cups for the first two applications, followed by spray applications with Dipel 2 X. Remaining applications were made with a CO2 pressurized sprayer at a tank pressure of 40 psi, timed to deliver 100 gal/acre.

One neonate fall armyworm was placed in each leaf whorl 1 week prior to treatment. Six weekly applications were made beginning on 2 Oct. Biosafe (nematodes) was applied the first 3 weeks only, followed by Lannate on subsequent dates. The first Biosafe application was made by automatic pipette to the whorl (into which 3.5 g of washed sand had already been introduced in treatment 3), and subsequently by hand-held trigger sprayer. Dipel 10 G was applied directly to the whorl from pre-weighed cups for the first two applications, followed by spray applications with Dipel 2 X.

Eight treatments were applied to evaluate control of pine needle midge on heavily infested 6-8 ft Scotch pine Christmas trees. Treatments were completed on 10 Jun and 25 Jun, and replicated five times in a randomized complete block design. Foliar treatments were completed by using a C02 compressed air sprayer with one 8004VS Teejet nozzle mounted on a 24 inch boom operating at 28 psi. Treatments were applied at the rate of 124 gal/acre (375 ml/tree), and applications were confined to the terminal. The following conditions existed on 10 Jun: air temperature 80°F; water pH, 7.0; 52% RH; and skies were partly cloudy. The following conditions existed on 25 Jun: air temperature, 68°F; water pH, 7.0; 80% RH. At 52 DAT (1 Sep), each treatment was evaluated by determining the percentage of missing needles from each terminal.
