Effect of Surfactants on Beet Armyworm and Fall Armyworm Larvae, 1994 [PDF]
Abstract Six commercially-available surfactants/ wetting agents were compared to determine their toxic effects on beet armyworm and fall armyworm larvae. Larvae used in this study were obtained from the USDA-ARS Insect Biology and Population Management Research Lab in Tifton, GA, and were 4-days-old on the day of treatment.
