      Before you bring a Christmas tree at your home, shake it out thoroughly to avoid the entry of unwanted bugs in your house. Shake it vigorously to shed any insects and spiders, if any. Once you have done with shaking, check out the pine needles as well as branches for any lingering aphids, adelgids, or other small insects. It is important to examine the tree branches and trunk for any indications of eggs or bugs. Pines are known for having the most bugs. Look at the trunk too, that small holes with sawdust trails are a sign of bark beetles. Do not bring that tree that seems heavily infected with insect pests.<\/p>\n

      Once you bring the tree home, do not forget to vacuum regularly around the bottom of the tree. This will help ensure that there are not any bugs left.<\/p>\n

      Consider keeping the tree in your garage or a place out of your house for at least one day before decorating it. This will allow you to see if any bug is venturing out from the tree. You can also spray some neem oil on your tree to kill Christmas tree bugs in any phases from eggs to adults. Do not use a chemical spray to avoid Christmas bugs as it can pose a serious fire hazard. Therefore, you need to avoid it any cost.<\/p>\n
