Written by three of the top professionals in the turfgrass field, Managing Turfgrass Pests, Second Editionbrings together hundreds of solutions and best practices to help you manage turfgrass weeds, diseases, and insects more effectively. Since the publication of the bestselling first edition, advances in pest-resistant turfgrass cultivars and pest control products have led to significant changes in the ways pests are managed. This revised and updated second edition reinforces those management tactics that are still relevant and covers new approaches that have been introduced since the first edition. The book discusses the concept of integrated pest management, incorporating cultural, biological, and chemical control measures. In particular, the authors emphasize the philosophy of minimizing pests through well-defined and well-implemented cultural systems. Rather than simply relying on a pesticide solution for control, they explain how to fine-tune cultural practices to better address the question of why the pest is present in the first place. Once these cultural practices are in place, any pesticide that is still required will be much more effective at controlling the pest. New in This EditionRevised and updated descriptions of economically important turfgrass pestsRevised and updated cultural approaches to turfgrass pest managementRevised and updated biological methods of turfgrass pest managementRevised and updated chemical control of turfgrass pestsMore than 200 new color illustrationsPacked with photographs, this full-color book provides updated information on best practices and control measures for turfgrass pest management.

Throughout, the authors offer practical recommendations to help you optimize the competitiveness of your turfgrass against the pests that inevitably become part of any ecosystem. | Managing Turfgrass Pests by Thomas L.
