Hi, I'm new and NOT a professional tree dude. However I have been lurking for months and learning how to take care of my own, (new home), and my many huge trees. And for what i have learned, I thank you.
My question, I have a couple of trees that are developing cavities at ground level from small red ants. The cavities are just large enough to hide a soda can inside the tree. The cavity has what looks like tiny wood pellets from these ants. These wood things actually spill out onto the ground around the tree. Is there anything that I can spray to kill them?
And are cavities of this size really anything to worry about? I want to save all of the trees that I can.
thanks,
Larry....
