Pesticide Safety Education Program, Ohio State University Extension 88 Woody Invasives Kathy Smith School of Environment and Natural Resources, Ohio State University Extension Invasive Species You Should Know Kudzu Pueraria montana A climbing, semi-woody, perennial vine. Leaves: deciduous, alternate and compound, with three broad leaflets up to 4 inches across. Leaflets may be entire or deeply 2-3 lobed with hairy margins. Flowers: about ½ inch long, purple, fragrant, borne in long hanging clusters, occurring in late summer. Seed: brown, hairy, flattened pods, each containing 3-10 hard seeds. Kills plants by smothering them, by girdling woody stems and tree trunks and by breaking branches or uprooting entire trees and shrubs by the force of its weight. Once established grows rapidly, extending as much as 60 feet per season at a rate of 1 foot per day. Its massive tap roots are 7 inches or more in diameter and 6 feet or more in length. Spreads by runners and rhizomes and by vines that root at the nodes to form new plants. Does spread by seed however only a couple of viable seeds are produced per cluster of pods. Seeds may not germinate for several years. Control: Cut stump - glyphosate or triclopyr applied to fresh cut stump at a rate of 25% v/v mixed with water. Sometimes a followup of foliar treatment is necessary. Foliar - not to be used when desirable plants are present. 2% v/v of either glyphosate or triclopyr and water with a .5% concentration of a non-ionic surfactant. Another effective option 4 oz. of metsulfuron methyl/ acre with 1/4-1/2% v/v non-ionic surfactant. The kudzu bug Megacopta cribraria has been found in the south and as far north as southeastern Kentucky. While it feeds on kudzu it also feeds on soybeans. The bug can invade homes and cause allergic reactions in some individuals. For more information see http://kudzubug.org Bittersweet Celastrus orbiculatus A deciduous woody, perennial vine. Leaves: simple, alternate, glossy with finely toothed margins. Nearly as wide as they are long. Flowers: Male and female plants. Female flowers small and greenish is axillary clusters. Fruit: three-valved, yellow, globe shaped that mature and split open to reveal three red- orange, fleshy fruits with 5 or more seeds. (American

  • Activity and Biological Effects of Neem Products Against Arthropods of Medical and Veterinary Importance
    Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association' 15(2):133-152, 1999 Copyright O 1999 by the American Mosquito Control Association, Inc. ACTIVITY AND BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF NEEM PRODUCTS AGAINST ARTHROPODS OF MEDICAL AND VETERINARY IMPORTANCE MIR S. MULLA ENN TIANYUN SU Depdrtment of Entomobgy, University of Califomia, Riverside, CA 92521-O314 ABSTRACT. Botanical insecticides are relatively safe and degradable, and are readily available sources of biopesticides. The most prominent phytochemical pesticides in recent years are those derived from neem trees, which have been studiedlxtensively in the fields of entomology and phytochemistry, and have uses for medicinal and cosmetic purposes. The neem products have been obtained from several species of neem trees in the family Meliaceae. Sii spicies in this family have been the subject of botanical pesticide research. They are ATadirachta indica A. Jrtss, Azadirachta excelsa Jack, Azadirachta siamens Valeton, Melia azedarach L., Melia toosendan Sieb. and Z1cc., and Melia volkensii Giirke. The Meliaceae, especially A. indica (Indian neem tree), contains at least 35 biologically active principles. Azadirachtin is the predominant insecticidal active ingredient in the seed, leaves, and other parts of the neem tree. Azadirachtin and other compounds in neem products exhibit various modes of action against insects such as antifeedancy, growth regulation, fecundity suppression and sterilization, oviposition repellency or attractancy, changes in biological fitness, and blocking development of vector-borne

    THE EFFECTS OF AZADIRACHTIN, METHOXYFENOZIDE, AND TEBUFENOZIDE ON THE YELLOW FEVER MOSQUITO, AEDES AEGYPTI by DANIEL JACK USRY (Under the Direction of Mark R. Brown) ABSTRACT Mosquito control is important to control the spread of pathogens which are transmitted by the bites of infected mosquitoes. To this end, research has focused on insecticides that are insect specific and have relatively low impact on the environment. Here I report on the plant botanical azadirachtin and the ecdysone agonists methoxyfenozide and tebufenozide. Overall, my results suggest that azadirachtin and tebufenozide are not suitable for use as insecticides, even though they cause mortality at high doses. Methoxyfenozide kills mosquitoes at high doses and reduces the number of eggs oviposited by females. Additionally, methoxyfenozide is able to stimulate egg production in non-bloodfed females. However, it is not able to cause eggs to develop all the way to oviposition.

The insecti­ cidal activity of certain B.t. kurstaki or B.t. tenebrionis A large number of physical and chemical pest control strains against the tobacco moth and cigarette beetle has methods have been developed up to now in order to already been sufficiently documented. Recent research ensure the effective protection of stored tobacco and has also looked at the possibility of using natural sub­ tobacco products. These methods include the use of fu­ stances, such as extracts from the neem tree (Azadirachta migants and insecticides, treatment of baled tobacco in indica), as storage protectants. Another very promising cold chambers, monitoring the extent of infestation with development is based on the autodissemination pheromone traps and, the most important preventive technique, whereby a modified pheromone trap in com­ measure of all, maintaining a strict programme to ensure bination with entomopathogenic viruses or fungi could hygienic storage conditions. To date, very little serious help to achieve a dramatic increase in mortality rates in consideration has been given to the practical use of bio­ stored tobacco pests. The chemical and biological proper­ logically based insecticides in storage pest control. Com­ ties of these bioinsecticides will be presented here and pared with synthetically-produced pesticides, however, their advantages and disadvantages as storage protectants they often have the advantage of being significantly less for tobacco discussed.
