Let us pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

What pests are we talking about?

Here are some options for insects.

1. Woodworms, bark beetles and bark beetles. They hide under the bark, in the bark or wood. They can be found by the tunnels they make.

3. Codling moths. They overwinter in cracks in the bark or under old bark.
4. Scale insects. They can lay eggs up to 0.5 mm long.
