My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Pine Sawfly larvae

18 years ago

I have what I believe to be an infestation of Pine Sawfly larvae on an ornamental pine in a bird-feeding 'sanctuary' area in my yard. (See This thread for photos and video).

How can these be controlled without poisoning the birds? The birds may be eating them, but obviously not enough of them to save this pine!
