Attached is a cross-section of the branch- the length displayed is about 6 inches. Does look like some type of larva was in the middle although it was just mush when I poked it with a toothpick. Would you suggest spraying the tree as a proactive measure or just stick with pruning? Again, thanks everyone for your input and advice. Patrick |
