Abstract
The southern mole cricket, Scapteriscus acletus Rehn and Hebard, and the changa, S. vicinus Scudder, are major pests of pasture in the southeastern United States. Eight candidate toxic baits were evaluated for control of mole crickets in pasture. The data indicate that 2% baits of chlorpyrifos, propoxur, and malathion would be most likely to control mole cricket populations at 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 lb AI/acre, respectively. At these rates, chlorpyrifos is 5.7–8.0 times more effective, propoxur is 8.1–11.4 times more effective, and malathion 6.0–8.4 times more effective than trichlorfon at its labeled application rate.
