ANSWERS.
define integrated pest management - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️system that uses all available and
suitable pest control tactics to reduce pest populations to tolerable levels while minimizing adverse
environmental side effects
explain how aesthetic thresholds affect IPM tactics - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️based on tolerance,
personal comfort, taste, plant appearance. landscape can tolerate lower levels while nurseries have next
to zero
explain how IPM can reduce the use of pesticides - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️involves a lot of
monitoring and cultural control first
six control strategies used in IPM - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔c️ ultural, mechanical, host resistance,
biological, regulatory, chemical practices
define pesticide - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔a️ ny material used to kill attract, repel, regulate or interrupt
growth and mating of pests, or regulate plant growth
contact pesticides - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️must physically touch the pest organism or be sprayed on
the site the pest frequents to exert an action
systemic pesticides - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️enters the plant via roots or above ground plant tissues
and is moved inside the plant
preemergence herbicide - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔a️ pplied prior to weed seed germination
postemergence herbicide - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔a️ pplied to weeds that are actively growing
, selective pesticides - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️control only certain types or stages of pests while
leaving non target organisms alone
nonselective pesticides - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️exert their action on a wide variety of pests
best application timing for effective pest control for plant diseases - CORRECT
ANSWERS✔️✔️susceptible tissues must be protected before any infection begins or before appearance
of symptoms
best application timing for effective pest control for insects - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️the younger the
insect the more effective, first or second instar caterpillars are better than larva

actively growing plants. annual-early in spring. biennials-fall or early spring. perennial-early bloom stage
how does pesticide resistance develop in a pest population - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️inherited trait
that results from repeated applications of pesticides with the same site and mode of action
importance of the numeric codes at the top of a pesticide label and pesticide resistance - CORRECT
ANSWERS✔️✔️tells site or mode of action, pesticides with the same number have the same action
four ways to minimize pesticide drift - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️correctly chosen nozzles, reduced spray
pressure, keep spray nozzle near the target, monitor weather conditions
in what ways can pesticides injure nontarget plants - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️movement into the root
zone, drift
posting rules for a pesticide application - CORRECT ANSWERS✔️✔️posted at the start of an application,
