Abstract: The protection of forests from damage is basic in the practice of forestry. Among the destructive agents, insects rank with fire, diseases, and wind. Many kinds of insects are constantly at work in the forest and cause a steady drain on timber supplies. A relatively few species of insects periodically become epidemic and kill forest trees on extensive areas, causing great economic losses.
