The Department of Infrastructure of the City of Cartagena, through its Parks and Gardens service, held this morning at the Plaza of the Heroes of Cavite and Santiago de Cuba test a new product to combat the red palm weevil.
The spread across the Mediterranean from this terrible plague, which affects more than twenty species of palms, is also infecting the palms of the region.
Only in Cartagena have been cut more than 200 copies since the beginning of the year.
With the means available today, the City continues to fight against this pest in the palm of public ownership.
The test is conducted from the nine-thirty in the m pineapple with the presence of contractors and grantees for the maintenance of public gardens.
The product is tested and a specific pesticide in Andalusia and Alicante, which acts by translocation within the plant and injected into the palm through a tube in the trunk will remain throughout the duration of treatment.
Cartagena City Council last year tried another method that is researching and developing the Institute Margalef, University of Alicante-based fungal predators.
