Magnolia scale/wasps treatment in Toronto
My magnolia tree seems to be emitting a type of sap. It gets all over my car, especially on my windshield. A large number of wasps have started gathering around these sappy excretions and it is getting dangerous out there. I've read that the sap is actually an excretion of a bug, the magnolia scale, that infests magnolia trees. I have noticed a little bit of white bumby areas on some branches but nothing alarming. I know there are some insecticide sprays that can be applied to the tree at certain times of the year to help combat this problem. But I fear that applying this stuff will be beyond my skill/commitment level. So, does anybody out there know of a company in Toronto, Canada that specializes in this type of pest control? I used PCO last year for something else but was not completely satisfied with the results. What type of company should I be looking for, a pest control company or a landscaping oriented company? -- Joey Goldstein http://www.joeygoldstein.com joegold AT sympatico DOT ca |
