4. Red-necked longhorn beetle: Hit the branches with a stick and kill the fallen insects promptly. When frass holes are found, pierce the larvae with wire, or plug a cotton ball with dichlorvos into the frass hole and seal it with yellow mud. Fumigate.

5. Japanese wax scale: Spray 2.5% deltamethrin or kungfu cyhalothrin 4000-5000 times solution, 10% cypermethrin EC or 20% pyrethroid EC 3000 times solution for control.
