Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us
that we are not the boss.

I am plagued by leaf miners on my citrus trees. No insecticides seem to
work. The leaves curl and eventually fall off. Hardly produce any oranges.

The trees are only 25 years old. May have to cut them all down, unless
there is an alternative.
