A composition which causes adult boring bark beetles to discontinue boring, discontinue laying eggs and become disoriented and bore out of the tree or cease boring altogether and die is described. Additional tests have shown that beetles will not infest a tree which has been treated with the composition. Furthermore, the composition also causes beetle larvae to cease boring and die and also causes egg sacks to shrivel and die.
