Cocciniglia Tartaruga - Il Trattamento in Endoterapia - Metodo Corradi

Pine trees are threatened by this parasite (scientific name: Toumeyella Parvicornis), which has already claimed victims in many areas of our country, from Campania to Lazio (with extensive damage in the capital), Abruzzo, and elsewhere. The Regional Phytosanitary Services have already alerted municipal administrations and private individuals affected by the problem. We must not let our guard down. In two years, pine trees will die if we don't act promptly. The method appears to guarantee positive results, in a good percentage! However, there was a significant problem to solve: conventional treatments with pesticides in urban areas are no longer possible, to protect public health. An EU exemption, subsequently implemented by the Ministries of Agriculture and Health, has allowed the use of endotherapeutic intervention systems. Here's how they are implemented. The description is by Agronomist Stefano Iacona, whom we met in action with his team in Pescara.
