what causes the leaves to turn yellow and fall off my river birch tree

1 Answer

Answer :

Check for bore holes in the bark, check the green leaves...............sevin, read the label carefully..........wear old long clothes, gloves, goggles and a mask and mix & spray.  You can call your forrester and he will tell you which bug.  I am thinking bore bug.  Keep children & pets away until that dries.
