Munson, Steven McKelvey, Stephen R. Entomology Drift carbaryl conifer bark beetle 4 pp. DeGomez, T. 2006. Preventing Bark Beetle Attacks on Conifers with Insecticides. University of Arizona, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Bulletin, AZ1380. Tucson, Arizona. A common method of protecting individual trees from bark beetle attack in the western U.S. is to saturate the tree bole with carbaryl using a hydraulic sprayer at high pressure. With this type of application method spray deposition will occur off-target and may contact open waters where sensitive species are subject to the toxic effects of the pesticide. We report on a recent study in which the authors reported carbaryl drift resulting from single tree protection treatments poses little threat to adjacent aquatic environments, a primary concern when treating trees in campgrounds in the Western United States. Using reasonable no-spray buffers will ensure that adjacent aquatic environments are protected from any negative impacts. 2009-05 text Pamphlet http://hdl.handle.net/10150/144788 AZ1493-2009 en_US University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Publication AZ1493 College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, University of Arizona (Tucson, AZ)
