Scale on elm

[MrFancyPlants]

I haven’t seen a white scale like this, or maybe it is something else. Bayer 3-1, knock it back, but didn’t take it out. I was thinking a soap and oil mix to scrub w a tooth brush and then reapply the 3-1?

Looks like something I had on my trident a few years ago, it was awful.

Wanna see something nasty?

Me neither, but nevertheless, I noticed some white flecks on this trident early in the spring. They didn’t come off easily, and weren’t moving either, so I just kind of ignored them. 3/…

I don’t know if I’d seen your blog before, though I think I recognize the little pig of a trident. Wonderful photography skills you have.

Your scale seem bigger. And mine don’t seem to have the waxy shell that I have experienced in the past. Though functionally, they sure seem like scale.

Thanks. I think yours will develop into the bigger ones like my trident had, since they started out almost exactly as yours are showing.
