Hello All,
I had given an estimate on a long leaf pine earlier today that had a good size citrus tree growning around the base. On the pine there was an oozing light colored and very smelly white puss? There were also 1/2" size larvae bunched up in groups of about five, and many small black flies. This was only evident where the pine and citrus tree met. The pine was pretty much dead, but I am wondering if it was due to this slimey worm flye poo. Any ideas???
