Hi Jeff,

Yes I deal with a lot of adelgid but only when i first take on a
property. Once I am managing the property and we reduce the n
turnover from the nitrates that previous companies were using we all
but elimanate the adelgid problem.

You need to use a lot of fungal foods when making this change and a
lot of protien based foods for foliar sprays to keep up the
populations on the needles.

This sytem works great in controlling mites and elongated scale on
the Hemlocks also

If you have any questions feel free to email me

James
