There are five different species of bark beetles which infest pine trees. At Nmc we have a method of controlling or stopping pine beetles.     

 The dendroctonus species of bark beetles primarily feed on pine trees, although they will also occasionally choose to infest spruce or larch trees. Pine trees are weakened by bark beetles, or infestation may become so severe as to kill off the entire tree.     The duration from egg to adult stages  average from 26 to 54 days.

 The beetles may have as few as three generations and as many as seven generations in Texas. The beetles stay over winter inside trees at all stages.

 Around the time that dogwoods bloom, adults beetles begin to fly. Females land t trees, often 1 to 2 feet from the ground, bore through the bark. They produce a smell that attracts males and females together to attack the tree . Females begin building egg galleries.  

Topical spray can help when applied before attacks but rarly after a colony is established.

after a colny is established we must use other types of treatments.
