We have a couple hundred Lodgepole pines on our property near Breckenridge, and maybe a dozen Ponderosa pines in Elizabeth.  We spray both places every year to stave off the beetles.  I keep hoping for a deep freeze every year to kill off these beetles; but the experts say we&#39;d need about two weeks of -15F temps to do that, which is very unlikely.  So, hopefully they&#39;ll get their fill and move on, so our forest can recover.
