Protect your valuable evergreen trees with the original BeetleBlock™ Verbenone and BeetleBlock™ MCH.

Many areas in the US and Canada are losing thousands of hectares of beautiful old evergreen trees due to the epidemic infestations of the Mountain pine beetle and the Douglas-fir beetle. For the last 20 years, the US Forest Service and the other government agencies have been field testing Verbenone and MCH and have determined that they are useful components of an integrated pest management strategy. Now available to the public, these safe and natural pheromone based products can help prevent bark beetles from attacking and destroying your trees. Historically, the only tree protection products available were toxic pesticide sprays, which may have serious impacts on the environment. Traditional pesticides may not be the best choice for some areas such as riparian zones, ecological preserves, parks and campgrounds. BeetleBlock ™ Verbenone and BeetleBlock™ MCH tree protection products offer an alternative to harmful pesticides.

You can increase the chances of saving your evergreen trees with a good pest management strategy that includes BeetleBlock™ products.

Why buy BeetleBlock™ from Synergy?

We know you have a choice when it comes to buying MCH and Verbenone products. Synergy is the first and the original seller of BeetleBlock™ products. For us these products aren’t just another dusty inventory item on a shelf that we are trying to clear out; these products are the cornerstones of our business. We have been involved in the research and development of these products since the early 1980’s. We have been intimately involved in the chemistry, formulation and biological testing of these products. 

BeetleBlock™ products have been designed for efficiency and ease of use. You only need 1 application per season.  Some products currently being sold in stores will require a second application half way through the season. This can be expensive and time consuming. 

It is not possible to write a single prescription to insure fool proof use of these products as every potential site is unique. These differences in sites can profoundly influence the outcomes when using Verbenone and MCH. In some cases Verbenone or MCH aren’t even the right choice for treatments. We have seen where they work well and situations where verbenone or MCH treatments have failed. Simply put, our knowledge and experience with BeetleBlock products is unsurpassed in the industry. There is no way a typical sales clerk in a hardware or big box store can match our product knowledge or experience. We always have time to talk with our valued clients and friends. We know we have best tree protection products on the market. Give us a call and we’d be glad to help you get the most out of your beetle treatment plans.
