Mark, yes I think the geo-locale makes a difference
Gabel, this is good news. Another question for you .... how can I tell if they are infested? We have a stand of slash pine which has been getting attacked for the last 3 years, and that stand is less than 500 yards from the edge of the loblollies. Should I just assume they are in the loblolly too, just not seeing them yet as we are in the slash?
Of course, I know we can get our County Ag guy to come out and tell us what he thinks, and perhaps even the State will send out someone although I don't know.
Thanks for the info - both of you.
Kevin
