- **Event Description**: Historically, the southern pine beetle (SPB) has been the most destructive native forest pest in the Southeast. SPB, and several other native pine bark beetles, can cause significant damage to our pine resource. Last year, the Virginia Department of Forestry placed 30 traps across 12 counties in high-risk locations in Virginia. The most SPB were found in traps located in Chesterfield, Cumberland and Dinwiddie counties; these counties may experience slightly higher SPB activity within the next year.

This session will provide more information about these beetles and how to protect your pines.
