The dreaded beetle by chimfa

The dreaded beetle

Palm trees in our area are being devastated by a red Beatle from Egypt . We've lost 9 now. The chap who cut this one down somehow managed to get it to fall in exactly the right place damaging nothing. I watched in fear and trepidation from the window. He is cutting the centre out here. The smell of the rotten palm is dreadful!
What a shame. The loppers are brilliant aren't they. We had two trees taken out from the back of our house and not a single plant was damaged.
Photos still upside down on this page. Have to look at them on the home page.

Sad that the old trees have to go. Great shot of a skillful tree trimmer.

I see how this can make a homeowner very sad...
