how do you get rid of pine bark beetles in a pine tree?

Pine bark beetles?
you cut down the tree before the spread to another. we had them in a tree in our yard. you could hear them boring into the wood. they will make the tree weak and a strong wind could break the tree off, and do some real damage. not sure where you live, i have a friend who is a forrester, you could call the county extension agency.
Reply:I agree with the best answer. Pine beetles spread to other pines, call your county agent to inspect other nearby pines. Once you cut tree down, haul it off, rake up and dispose of bark. Report It
