message: Apparently they found beetles killing jack pine. I don't know enough to contribute to the article but that's a pretty big deal.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.73.27.197 (talk) 23:54, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

message: A lot more information could be added to this article.   How can they be controlled?  What research is being done into counteracting their effect?  Were they introduced to the forest by man?--P Todd (talk) 03:29, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

message: When driving in PA (or maybe VA), I saw a billboard on the side of the highway telling people not to move firewood, and giving a website (which I've forgotten). It didn't really state WHY you shouldn't move firewood, only that mountain pine beetles were bad, which led me to looking them up on Wiki. So.. what's the connection between beetles and firewood?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.61.86.36 (talk) 17:16, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Beetles and firewood 

message: In the wake of recent sawmill explosions in British Columbia, there's been speculation that sawdust from beetle-infested pines is much drier -- and thus, more flammable/explosive -- than otherwise. Is this worth putting in the article (assuming we have proper sources)? DS (talk) 13:10, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

message: The bark beetles are natural. The article does not point out very well that well watered trees that are in a natural fire regime are not so dense and thus prone to attack. It also does not mention that treatment with cu and mn can prevent attacks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.191.191.183 (talk) 06:13, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

message: The management techniques section should be rewritten - it talks about a specific product far too deeply, reading like an advertisement rather than an article. 50.59.173.16 (talk) 03:54, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
