| Soil-applied insecticides recommended for control of rootworm larvae also may prevent early stand losses due to wireworms, grubs, seedcorn maggot, and seedcorn beetles. |
| It is a trap similar to the one that peasants enter when they feed seedcorn to their starving children. |
| It appears that these seed applied insecticides and liquid insecticides will be effective in protecting seeds from seed feeding insects such as wireworms and seedcorn maggots. |
| If the early stand loss is a result of seedcorn maggot, wireworm, grubs, or early cutworm infestation, timely response with rescue treatments may not be feasible. |
| Selectively chosen, these customers are the seedcorn of the future. |
| Partially eaten seeds, loss of germination, or stunted seedlings in the presence of small brown ground beetles indicate a seedcorn beetle problem. |
