Balsam Woolly Adelgid: A Pest of True Fir Species
Balsam Woolly Adelgid: A Pest of True Fir Species EB1456  
Author(s): Arthur L. Antonelli
Though often wrongly labeled an aphid, the balsam woolly adelgid (Adelges piceae) is a member of another family of "sucking" insects. Since reproduction is parthenogenic, one female can spontaneously give rise to a whole colony. Here are full color photographs to help identify this pest. The text explains its life cycle and control methods.
NOTE: Check the label before using any chemical agents.

Published: April 1992.   Revised: April 1992.   4 pages.
