Low pressure, low volume sprayers or granular applicators can be used against which pest categories?

• A. Soil Or Aboveground Foliage Pests Of Ornamentals
• B. Diseases Or Insects On Turfgrass
• C. Weeds
• D. All Of The Above

Answer: (D)

Low pressure, low volume spraying and granular application are versatile because they let you reach pests in multiple places and stages. A light, even spray coats leaves and stems to control leaf-feeding insects and foliar diseases on ornamentals and turf. Granular applicators place granules into the soil or onto the surface, which is effective for soil-dwelling pests and for preemergent or contact herbicides to control weeds. They can also deliver pesticides that act on insects or diseases when applied to the turf or soil. Because these methods cover both aboveground foliage and the soil, they’re suitable for pests on ornamentals, diseases or insects affecting turfgrass, and weeds. That broad applicability is why all of the above is the best choice.
