*Hunting billbugs require earlier applications than the Bluegrass billbugs. Apply in early April if you have this species to protect turf against billbugs and use a higher rate in the range. A water carrier volume of at least 1.0 gallons per 1,000 ft² is recommended. Use a flat fan nozzle that provides thorough plant coverage. See individual specimen labels for post-application irrigation instructions.

The initial applications for the control of Annual Bluegrass Weevil are based on the monitoring for adults, growing degree days and plant phenology.
