To spray in holes in trees
We generally recommend using a pyrethroid such as Bifen ITÂ or Permethrin SFRÂ as a preventative treatment in late spring/summer before the egg hatches to protect trees. If trees are badly infested, then they should be removed and either chipped or burned.
Â
Keep in mind that trees that become infested with bark beetles are almost always susceptible due to some other existing weakness such as drought or disease.Â
