Insect pest of Xanthoceras sorbifolia and its control

There are three main pests of Xanthoceras sorbifolia: wood lice, black velvet beetle and root knot nematode

Wood lice

Eliminating overwintering adults is a fundamental approach, which requires timely identification of fallen leaves and weeds under plants. In addition, in the initial stage of wood lice pests, it is also very reasonable to choose insecticides, such as avermectin emulsifiable concentrate and other agents for spraying pages and branches to eliminate pests

Black velvet beetle

There are three ways to deal with black velvet beetles: trapping with insect killing lamps or manual capture. These two methods are more suitable for less pests. In the face of large-scale pests, the third method can be selected for drug control

Root knot nematode

When root knot nematodes are found, the response is to remove the diseased roots of trees in time, and dispose of them in time. You can choose to burn or cut them in a centralized manner. Another way is to use drugs to check and kill. Dig a small hole near the tree tray, inject insecticide, and then bury it with soil to treat the soil
