Do pine beetles turn pine trees blue?

What can be done in the future to stop the spread of pine shoot beetles?
There doesn't seem to be any chemical means of controlling pine shoot beetles. Nothing effective has been developed yet. In Europe, where the beetle is native, the practice of debarking of cut timber as soon as trees are felled seems to help.The pine shoot beetle does have at least one predator, Thanasimus formicarius Linnacus (TfL). TfL beetles feed on pine shoot beetles and each can consume at several each day. The problem with treating the infestation in the US with the pine shoot beetles natural enemy is the introduction of yet another alien species.The only effective course of action in the US other than the timing of debarking the Europeans use is the quarantine of affected tree varieties from state to state transport, at least until a more effective means of treatment can be established.

What sound do pine bark beetles make?
Pine bark beetles produce a distinctive sound that can be described as a series of rhythmic "clicking" or "tapping" noises. This sound is primarily created when the beetles tunnel through the bark of trees, as they scrape and chew the wood. The noise may vary depending on the size of the infestation and the type of tree affected. In addition to the sound, the presence of pine bark beetles can often be detected by the accumulation of frass (beetle excrement) and the discoloration of the tree's bark.
How might beetles be affected by biological amplification?
Biological amplification may cause beetles and other scavengers to adapt to the pesticides. This can also cause the predator of beetles to become adapted and possibly immune to pesticides.
