Because aldicarb (Temik) is no longer readily available for control and suppression of thrips and nematodes in South Carolina, options, including seed treatments and in-furrow and foliar sprays, were tested for both groups of pests.  Timing of pesticide delivery was evaluated for single and split foliar sprays of (oxamyl) Vydate.
