Asian Ambrosia Beetle – On Fig
![FIg-Tree | Walter Reeves: The Georgia Gardener](https://t9e4s3i5.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/FIg-Tree-600x601.jpg)
Q: Earlier this spring I thought my fig tree was budding out. Now it looks dead and has those white things on it. Any idea what is the problem?
A: You have an Asian ambrosia beetle infestation. Cut the limb and burn/dispose of it immediately.
I have all the details at Ambrosia Beetle – Control.
