  1. Dr. Vera Krischik, Department of Entomology University of Minnesota www.entomology.umn.edu/cues PHYLLOPHAGA AND OTHER GRUB MANAGEMENT

  2. Japanese beetle is no longer a quarantine pest in Minnesota UMES/MDA bulletin on managing Japanese beetle

  3. Spring 2003:IPM of Midwest landscapes

  4. Japanese beetle Five tufts of white hairs along the wing margins.

  5. False Japanese beetle False Japanese beetles lacks the 5 tufts of white hair along the wing margin.

  6. Phyllophaga, May/June beetle These May/June beetles are attracted to lights. The largest species has a three year life cycle.

  7. Northern masked chafer Northern masked chafer has dark areas in a circular patch behind the head.

  8. Rose chafer Clemson UniversityUSDA Cooperative Extension Slide Serieswww.forestryimages.org Note the long legs and pale color.

  9. Black turfgrass Ataenius Smallest scarab beetle in turf.

  16. Three year cycle of Phyllophaga May/ June beetle

  17. Pesticide choice: Preventative Imidacloprid - is NOT fast acting, so use as a preventative control, not as a rescue treatment. Apply imidacloprid after May 15 and before August 15. It has minimal risk to birds and fish.

  18. Pesticide choice: Preventative Halofenzide - is NOT fast acting, so use as a preventative control, not as a rescue treatment. Halofenzide mimics an insect hormone and is best applied when adults are active and laying eggs from June to the beginning of August. Minimize thatch since it will prevent the insecticide from penetrating to the roots.

  19. Pesticide choice: Rescue No longer available for turf: bendiocarb, chlorpyrifos, diazinon, isofenophos, oftanol

  20. Pesticide choice: Rescue Trichlorfon - is a fast-acting material, but is susceptible to alkaline hydrolysis. One-half of the active ingredients will be degraded in 30 minutes at a pH of 9. Trichlorfon can be used as a rescue treatment when damage is observed.

  21. Ecosystem Management AVOID Norway maple horse chestnut gray birch roses hollyhock linden black walnut grapes mountain ash elm flowering fruits: crabapple, apple cherry, black cherry,plum

  22. Ecosystem Management BETTER CHOICE red maple silver maple boxelder white oak red oak poplar white ash green ash lilac euonymus spruce yew
