The best treatment, he said, is proper forest management, including thinning.


Thinning Greenies...!!! Thought it was too good to be true.



When it comes to Greenies - call them what they are terrorists of a different color.

I lost three of these pines to these things and you don't know it until they are already too far gone. I've got one left. And the bad thing is that the trees have to come down immediately or they can break in the middle and land on your house. That's why it is dangerous to build your house in the middle of a pine forrest. This was is in East Texas.

These bugs have already been south and done a lot of damage--if the trees have had plenty of water they can often survive.

I dug a couple out of my Austrian pine in my backyard, I'm in the SE Corner of WA state, close to the Idaho border... I'm going to have to get rid of the tree, it's a mess.
