Zusammenfassung:A system, apparatus, and method for use in controlling subterranean insect population and for use in irrigation is provided. Characteristics are monitored in a plurality of under and above soil level regions. The characteristics may include, for example, thermal heat or moisture level characteristics; seismic-type, vibrational, or acoustic characteristics indicative of air pockets or tunnels created by a subterranean insect population; or sound or acoustic levels produced by a subterranean insect population. It is determined whether one or more of the characteristics in one or more of the soil regions are indicative of a subterranean insect population exceeding a threshold or have a need for irrigation. Based on the determining, a treatment need is identified for the one or more soil regions. The treatment need is executed at regions corresponding to the one or more soil regions.
