Supplementing ground and crop management practices with powerful baits approved for conventional and organic production is an efficient way to achieve as much control as possible.
Slugs and snails can rob performance from any crop. They’re among the most destructive pests in agriculture. In fact, slugs alone can wipe out a slow-growing crop in just a few days, according to The Ohio State University. Both pests thrive in damp and wet conditions, common during spring. They’re most active at night and on cloudy and foggy days. They hide when it’s sunny and warm, so often the only evidence of their presence is missing or damaged plants and slimy, silver trails.
Whether in a large turfgrass farm or residential lawn, weed management remains important throughout summer. Weeds detract from the beauty of turfgrass, plus they compete for sunlight, moisture, nutrients and space. Left untended, weeds have the potential to dominate an area where turfgrass grows.
Quality turfgrass is important to our daily activities, as the late, famed agronomist James B. Beard wrote. It aids with erosion control; can eliminate dusty or muddy areas; reduces noise, glare and pollution; reduces heat and in many cases, provides direct economic benefits to growers and other landowners. It is also part of multiple recreational activities and looks great in well-tended lawns, golf courses, parks and other areas.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means, and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment.
