Methods To Curb The White Pine Weevil
Harrisburg officials urge seasonal protection for white pine forests from the white pine weevil. Adults are brown beetles about a quarter inch long with a curved snout. Eggs hatch into grubs that eat inner bark, killing leaders and stunting growth. Control methods include picking off weevils, burning infected shoots, housing infested leaders for parasites, encouraging birds, thinning and mixing species, and using mosquito netting on young trees in spring.
