You could explain to them that the rhizosphere would do better with proper
mulching. Turf really does not help the tree much and causes more of a
problem than tent caterpillars. However DO NOT dig out the turf, the turf
roots grow deeper than the non-woody absorbing (absorb water and essential
elements from soil) of the tree. Digging out the turf will injure the
tree. Here is an article your neighbor could read. Mulch can be applied
anytime as long as it is composted for at least a year. NOT FRESH CHIPS!

Explain from science how mulching will aid in the control of gypsy moth,
yard man.

He didn't say that. He said that turf was bad for black walnut and
gypsy moth was just an annoyance. However, fall webworm is not gypsy
moth.

You must have missed the past few years of the yard boy recommending
mulching for every possible condition or conditions of trees.

Sure salvage logging deforestation person staples. When most tree problems
are trouble in the rhizosphere than mulching could be the answer for many
problems if done correctly. I would not expect Don Staples to have a clue.
his specialty is wood products and not tree biology. He actually says that
removing all wood and cellulose is restoration of a forest. I strongly
disagree as well as many other tree people.

Your a tree person, all right, dense as a dead log. Like I said, yard boy,

A 58 day biologist, what a boy wonder.

Correct mulching is a natural requirement of trees of a forest. Do you have
any understanding of tree biology? I think not.
Don Staples has no clue as to the importance of correct mulching for the
health of trees and their associates.

Most tree problems are trouble in the rhizosphere.

Don Staples claims that removing all wood from a site is restoration.
http://www.livingston.net/dstaples/Services/salvage.htm

Mulch comes in different gradations from fine organic material to large tree
trunks with soil contact. Nurse logs provide water during drought. When
trees do not have water during drought their energy reserves is reduced.
Trees with energy reserves reduced are more likely to suffer from gypsy
moths. Just one of many benefits of mulch.

Enjoy the storm Don Staples.

Other than gypsy moths and mulch comes the benefits of wood for forest
health. here is an example of what your restoration work really is:

Ok, then, Don Staples. Please provide data specific to Texas that states
that your salvage and restoration work increases the health of a forest
rather
than what I state, which that is that your practice is deforestation.
Please
provide the page and paragraph number where your data can be found stating
that you increase forest health by your salvage and restoration work. You
claim I am a fraud while all along you promote deforestation. You claim to
be a consulting forester. Please consult and provide the data for your
practice.

I anticipate they are delicious--aromatic and not absinthian like some English walnuts. They're admirable in accolade or brownies. They are a PITA to abstract from the shells, however, and never appear out whole.
