Granulated Ambrosia Beetle Allert

Hello Green Industry Professional

This in from Steven Frank

We have just received reports that Granulate Ambrosia Beetles are active in Eastern and Central NC. Growers should protect susceptible nursery stock with applications of permethrin to tree trunks.

More information can be found here:Note 111

Information about our ambrosia beetle research can be found here:Granulated Ambrosia Beetle

This list is only used for ambrosia beetle alerts. We offer frequent alerts about the activity of landscape and nursery pests via Twitter. Visit our home page http://ecoipm.wordpress.com/ to see previous alerts. Click "follow @ornapests" to signup. We monitor pest activity and send alerts about the pests that are active.

Spring is here!

We are also monitoring traps here in Western NC and will be letting you know as soon as we see them here.
