    Asian Long-horned beetle I’d?

    I sent them a picture and location. I destroyed this one but will keep and rear any other that I find when I split the rest of the wood.

    Asian Long-horned beetle I’d?

    can anyone I’d this grub. It looks like ALB but much larger. The bore is 3/4 to 1 inch and it was almost 4 inches long. I found it while splitting pecan I had removed in SE NC on the coast.

    Friction saver help

    It looks like the prussic was twisted out of shape. The knot is not set correctly or it may have been side loaded putting more stress on one side than the other. You may have jerked it out of shape when you retrieved it from the palm, those things will bind your rope so bad it's hard just to...

    Ants in oak.

    Permathrin does a nice job on ant infestations. I heard saw gas is pretty tough on the critters too but just a little flammable.

    Ouch

    Not sure if this is the correct forum. We took down several southern pine borer beetle infested trees this week and found out the little nasties can bite and it hurts like heck. Everyone on the crew got at least one bite. The beetles were ready to fly when we took the trees down. Any...

    Can anyone identify this fungus and offer treatment options? It is impacting several red oaks in SE NC near the coast. The leaves are beginning to turn yellow. I did not observe any insect activity. Thanks in advance
