Show infestations of black grass bugs and consider control measures before the nymphs become adults and start laying eggs. Ranchers who are not familiar with these insects may contact their county agents for help in finding and identifying the bugs. Roberts explained that black grass bugs can be controlled with an application of ultra-lovolume malathion, as little as eight ounces per acre. However, the pesticide application must be critically timed. Apply the spray when temperatures are 60 degrees Farenheit or higher and preferably before the nymphs become adults. Roberts points out that good control of black grass bugs and other injurious pests of grasses could enable Utah rangelands to feed thousands of additional cattle every year. Black bug control could save many acres of farm, ranch land forage Black grass bug populations are now building up and threatening thousands of acres of valuable rangeland grasses, according to reports from county extension agents in various parts of the state. Be safe, buckle up, council says percent ot all passenon the road today are cars ger equipped with safety belts. But, in Utah, only one out of eight motorists buckle those belts (about half the national average). In the United States, 22 percent of all motorists buckle up, saving about 3,000 lives and 222,000 injuries every year. If four out of five people would fasten their safety belts, we we could save about 13,500 lives and nearly one million injuries. One of those may be your life. Are you sitting on it? These are the conclusions of the Utah Safety Councils Linn C. Baker. Baker said that driving is the most dangerous thing that most people will ever do. Nearly 50,000 people are killed and another four million are injured every year in automobile accidents. Two million are injured seriously. Half of all the people now living in the United States will be involved in a traffic accident in their lifetime, Baker says.

Roberts, extension entomologist, Utah State University, said Research indicates that in some situations, heavy infestations of black grass bugs can consume as much or more grass than the usual allotment of cattle on the rangeland. With the multitude of problems facing most ranchers today, they cannot afford to lose these valuable forage grasses to insect pests." Roberts explained that insects overwinter in the egg stage. They hatch into nymphs in early to appearing first in the lower valleys of southern Utah. As daily temperature increases come, they become active on grasses further north and at the higher elevations. Though the black grass bugs can be very numerous at this time of year, ranchers often miss seeing them because they are so small, especially the nymphs. The damage, often great at this time of year, appears in the form of white spots on the blades of grass. These can be seen upon close inspection.
