Host Tree Stands: Stand and fallen pine trrees, including: limber, loblolly, lodge-pole, pinyon, ponderosa, shortleaf, Virginia, western whitepine, white, whitebark, or pine trees of any species. Use on trees in forests; municipal and shade tree areas, recreational areas such as campgrounds, golf courses, parks and parkways; ornamental and shade tree plantings; suburban areas; and rights of way and other easements
Pests: Verbenone is an antiaggregation pheromone for the mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae), the southern pine beetls (Dendroctonus frontalis), the western pine beetles, (Dendroctonus brevicomis), and other bark beetles. Verbenone Pouches deter attacks in tree stands and protect suceptible trees.
Application Rate: In tree stands, place in a grid pattern by stapling individual pouches 6-12 feet above the ground on the north face of suceptible trees. Usa a minimum of 20 pouches per acre. The product is most efficacious when less than 15% of mature pines are currently attcked and when cmbined with direct control tactics e.g sanitation harvesting or faelling and burning of infected trees.
For individual living trees, staple one pouch at maximum reach from the ground on the north face or two pouches, one at 6 feet and one at 12 above the ground on the north face.
Timing: Apply pouches when callow adults are first found under the bark, usually May-June for mountain pine beetle. The expected life span of the pouch is 60 - 120 days, weather dependent.
Treatment is usually site-specific, depending on such factors as proximity, size and rate of growth of an infestation, stand age and composition, aspect elevation, altitude, climate, local weather and integration with other control tactics. Inexperienced users are advised to seek guidance from a professional forest entomolotist.
Store in sealed storage bag in a cold, dry place. Store below 32 degrees F (or 0 degreesC) or as cold as possible.
