ResumoAbstract ‘C-O Cross’ variety cabbage was seeded in flats on 20 Jun and transplanted on 1 Aug in a clayey, gibbsitic, nonacid, isohyperthermic Lithic Ustorthents soil in Barrigada, Guam. Plots measured 3.6 m by 2 rows. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with 4 replications. A drip system was used to irrigate the experiment. Insecticide treatments were applied on 3, 8, and 12 Aug with the use of a Solo backpack hand-operated sprayer. Efficacy was evaluated by counting the number of ant-infested plants and plants dead due to ant attack on 5, 8, 10, 12, and 15 Aug.
