Got holes in your tree?

A myriad of insects, often beetles or clear wing moths, have a larval form that chew wood. Some feed deeply within the tree while others feed just below the bark. Once larvae become adults, they chew out of the tree. We usually see the exit holes and not the critter that caused it. Once our Tree Dr. defines the species of tree we can generally narrow the possibilities to the usual suspects and how to treat

Q: Does My Tree Have Mistletoe?

Mistletoe is a plant parasite. It roots into the trees’ branches and sucks up water and raw materials from the tree. If there is enough mistletoe in a tree it can be sucked dry and die. Trees with mistletoe frequently have other problems, like wood boring insects. It is best to take care of mistletoe during the leafless season.
