What to do about the Mountain Pine Beetle today?
Verbenone is the treatment of choice for property owners who want to protect their high value trees and acreage but don't want to risk wildlife and run-off of contaminants. It is tried and true - tested for many years in the forests of Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, British Columbia - all up and down the Rockies. The US Forest Service, BLM, and the National Park Services have purchased thousands of treatments and continue to purchase more each year.
The pheromone comes in tiny pouches (seen below) that you tack to the trunk of the susceptible tree in the early summer. It tricks the beetles into continuing to fly, looking for more fruitful acreage than yours. Many will die before finding suitable habitats.
It's easy and effective. In the past it has cost more than spraying poisons. Not now! Our volume purchasing power has brought the prices down to an all-time low!
Now, Verbenone is easy. Effective. AND less expensive than poison!
