Dealing with red beetle on palm trees
The following method is preventive, ie it can not be applied to a palm that is in a very advanced stage of infestation. But it can have early stages and great success when applied proactively. The difference with the other methods lies in the fact that the method of application requires the maintainer to spend 5 minutes a month placing the appropriate medicine in the injector and does not require any further action.
For Phoenix Dactylifera (date palm) palms as well as in the species Washingtonia, Trachycarpus, Cocoteros, Chamaerop, 2 injectors per tree are proposed, 15 cm at the same height of the trunk and with an angle of 180 degrees.
For Phoenix Canariensis palm trees, 2-3 injectors per tree are recommended, 25 cm at the same height of the trunk and at an angle of 120 degrees.
