🚨 Pine Tree Alert: Zimmerman Moth & Mountain Pine Beetle Activity 🚨

If you have Austrian, Ponderosa, Scots, or Lodgepole Pines, now is the time to inspect your trees.

Two major threats are active in Colorado:

🪲 Mountain Pine Beetle (MPB)
• Attacks healthy mature pines
• Causes rapid decline and tree death
• Signs include pitch tubes, fading needles, and woodpecker damage

🦋 Zimmerman Pine Moth
• Targets pine trunks and branch unions
• Weakens tree structure over time
• Look for large resin masses and sawdust around the bark

⚠️ Early detection matters. While MPB infestations often require removal, Zimmerman Moth damage can be prevented and treated when caught early.

At Environmental Tree Care, our Certified Arborists provide:
✅ Professional inspections
✅ Pest identification
✅ Preventative treatment programs
✅ Long-term pine protection plans

Healthy trees start with proactive care.

Another backyard transformed! ✨

We recently completed this custom landscape project featuring a natural stone stream and pond, artificial turf, and new tree installations to frame the space and add long-term beauty.

From the flowing water and hand-placed boulders to the lush turf and thoughtfully planted trees in the background, every element was designed to feel natural while staying low-maintenance and functional.

This backyard is now built for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying the outdoors year-round. 🌿💧
What’s your favorite feature?

See this white stuff on a pine tree? That’s not sap — it’s a warning sign. ⚠️🌲

Those are called pitch tubes, and they usually mean bark beetles are attacking the tree.

The tree is literally trying to push the beetle back out with resin.
If the beetles win, the tree loses.

Early treatment can make all the difference.

If you spot this on your pines, give Environmental Tree Care a call — we’ll help you catch it before the damage becomes permanent.
