Peeps
5 year old buck +
I lost 2 trees this summer and I’m pretty sure it was from borers which I’ve never had a problem with before. I also found a few holes in another tree as well. That one’s still alive. With my schedule and weather I wasn’t able to keep up with my spray schedule this year as well as I like. My plan going forward is to paint all the trunks with the latex, joint compound, and permethrin mixture and make it a priority next year to get up there to spray every 10-14 days. Lost another tree from bears and had others damaged from them but I’m a little limited on fighting that problem.
