Hello folks,

I'm not sure if this question is best for the Landscaping site or the Gardening site but here goes.

My husband and I just moved into our new house. There is a tree infested with Japanese beetles. We are told we will have to cut it down to prevent infestation into other areas of the yard. Is this true? Can we get rid of the bugs some other way or is this tree doomed?

We don't know what the tree is yet. I will do some research and try to post pics later. It is smallish (not quite my height). To me, it looks like a decorative landscaping tree.

Thanks for your help.
