A bark beetle is any of various beetles of the subfamily Scolytinae, many of which reproduce in the inner bark of trees.
Adult bark beetles typically live for several months to a few years, depending on the species and environmental conditions. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and food availability can influence their lifespan. Generally, many species have a lifespan ranging from one to two years. However, in optimal conditions, some may survive longer.
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.
Longhorn beetles and their larvae eat dead or decaying bark.
