mole cricket nematode - Steinernema scapterisci common name: mole cricket nematode Nguyen & Smart, (Nematoda: Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) The most important insect pests of turf and pastures in Florida are mole crickets. And their damage is not restricted to grasses. Their feeding and tunneling also destroy seedlings of vegetables, ornamentals, and tobacco. Insecticides commonly applied to control mole crickets in lawns, golf courses, and seed beds are expensive and not always effective. In pastures there is no control that is economically feasible; yet without control, stands of pasture grasses are frequently so reduced as to require replanting.
