Abstract

Control of the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), and the corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie), on fresh market sweet corn in central and south Florida was investigated during 1967–68. Highest percentage of injury free ears occurred in plots treated with Gardona® (2-chloro-1-(2,4,5-trichlorophenyl) vinyl dimethyl phosphate), parathion + methyl parathion, parathion + DDT, Lannate® (S-methyl N-[ (methylcarbamoyl) oxy] thioacetimidate), carbofuran, Dursban® (O, O-diethyl 0-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl phosphorothioate), diazinon + DDT, and GC-6506 (dimethyl p-methylthio) phenyl phosphate). Other materials tested were less effective.
