Removal of beetle infested wood
A major challenge in recent years is the fight against bark beetles. They attack healthy trees and can cause forest stands to die over large areas.
Tackle the bark beetle with mulching
Targeted and rapid mulching can prevent and contain the presence of bark beetles. In addition, it can destroy possible breeding sites. The mulch material is left on site and the area can easily be further processed. This creates an optimum environment for plant growth. The powerful carrier vehicles and forestry mulchers from Prinoth come into their own perfectly here, on level ground, on skid trails or even extremely steep slopes. They guarantee maximum efficiency and performance in the shortest possible time to process a large mass of damaged wood and enable reforestation.
