BT does works good but to get it into a 70 foot tree you need comm. type sprayers and add wind and your neighbors don't spray and they just fly along in the wind on webs of silk into your yard. Just plain sucks. Small trees with hand sprayers are ok that way. The comm. guys are probably using a combo of BT and some other stuff. I just hope gypsy moths are not bad this year as they would be just starting.

After reading this.. I finally have found a reason to like my pine trees...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
