Pecan trees threatened by three borers and control methods
Three borer species harm pecan trees. The moth larva creates a 1 4 inch hole and moves up or down the trunk. carbon bisulphide saturated cotton placed in the hole and sealed with wax or putty is advised. Flat headed borers girdle trees under bark and should be cut out with a knife when dead bark appears. The shot hole borer attacks diseased or damaged trees. healthy trees resist. Prevent by keeping trees healthy with ample water, especially after planting.
