Feel free to forward this alert to a friend.

Lest we forget during the winter months,

We would like to try running a little survey of our readers. We won't keep track of who sent what but will send you all the result of any responses we receive. Please reply to stumpmaker@gmail.com and let us know:

Do you have pine beetle infested trees on your property right now?
What are you doing with them?
What kind of help would you like in order to treat or dispose of them?

Thanks for your participation.
