Abstract

Abstract Three insecticides, rates, and application methods were compared for control of fungus gnat larvae. Infested ‘Hershey’s Red’ azaleas growing in 2.8-liter plastic pots of an amended pine bark, peat moss, sandy loam medium, 10:2:1, vol/vol/vol, were selected for treatment. Plants were grown in a glass greenhouse under 47% shade. Treatments were replicated, randomized, and pots individually caged with paper cylinders covered with tulle to limit gnat movement. Control was determined by trapping emerging adults with Olsen Yellow Sticky Traps (3.5 by 4 cm).
