Book Description
This thesis is an investigation of the ecobiology and integrated pest management (IPM) of the carrot rust fly (Psila rosae) (CRF) in the Holland Marsh, Ontario. The Holland Marsh is a major carrot producing area in North America. Carrot rust fly is a serious pest of carrots. An IPM program for CRF is used within the Holland Marsh. Published CRF rearing procedures were found to be inadequately detailed. Improvements to the procedure were identified. Various insecticides, including seed treatments, in-furrow, and post-emergent, were evaluated for their effectiveness to control CRF. No conclusions could be made on their effectiveness due to low pest pressure. The natural enemy species composition in the Holland Marsh was determined and known CRF and carrot weevil natural enemies were identified. The IPM program used in the Holland Marsh was not found to be detrimental to the natural enemy species richness or abundance.

Book Description
The Holland Marsh, Ontario is a major carrot-producing area in North America. Carrot weevil (CW) and carrot rust fly (CRF) are serious pests of carrots in the Holland Marsh, and current integrated pest management programs (IPM) no longer provide an acceptable level of control for either pest. This thesis investigated the efficacy of different control tactics to improve IPM of CW and CRF in the Holland Marsh. Applications of Rimon (novaluron) consistently reduced CW damage compared to other tested products, especially when applied at least twice, starting at the 2nd true leaf stage. Seeding carrots in late May or early June resulted in significantly less CW damage than carrots seeded earlier in the spring and were therefore identified as a possible cultural control of CW. Celery and carrot oils were attractive to CW and could be used in field traps to improve monitoring later in the growing season.
