Abstract Foliar applications of insecticides were evaluated for FAW control in Brenda County. Each plot was 20 ft by 4 rows (36-inch centers), of NC 10 variety peanuts, and plots were arranged in a RCBD with four replicates. Peanuts were grown under standard production practices in a light sandy soil. Treatments were applied on 29 Aug using a CO2 backpack sprayer operating at 40 psi delivering approx. 30 gpa and using 8003 flat-fan nozzles. Conditions at time of application were sunny and 80°F. Worms were sampled 3 DAT (1 Sep) and 5 DAT (3 Sep) by taking 4 standard 3-ft beat cloth counts per plot. Pre-treatment counts on 29 Aug determined the larval population to be 6 worms per 1 standard 3-ft beat cloth sample. All instars were present at the time of sampling. Only live caterpillars were counted for analysis. All data were transformed (square root ofx + 0.05) prior to ANOVA and DNMRT.
