Chestnuts were one that I recall that were specifically mentioned.  There
were two others.  Also, I think they said pesticides were not effective
against these beetles.  Thank you for putting "beetle" in the subject line.
 Others talking about this beetle were writing under an inappropriate
subject line, such as "impatiens".  Many who would have been interested
probably missed the earlier beetle talk.  Margaret
