Rootworms Hatching Reported Across Northern Iowa Fields
County Extension Director Gene Vincent notes rootworms are beginning to hatch in northern Iowa. ISU entomologist Harold Gundersen warns Bremer county farmers to dig up corn plants and inspect soil and roots for insects, especially where aldrin, heptachlor or organophosphorus insecticides were used at planting. Heavy rains may have washed away protections, and eastern Iowa sees resistant worms in some areas.

Rootworm control guidelines for corn planting
If worm activity or 50 percent of roots show brown color or tunnels, current planting insecticide is likely ineffective. A lay by application of 1 pound actual diazinon Thimet parathion or 4072 is advised. Apply granules in a narrow base band and cover with soil. Recheck after a few days and ensure the corn height allows application.
