Jangseong-gun Promotes Maintenance of Trees and Roadside Street Trees along Hwangryonggang River

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Gilsu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 22nd that it will promote the maintenance and management of trees along the Hwangryonggang River and roadside street trees, which are closely related to the lives of residents.

Considering the timing of pest outbreaks, the county plans to carry out timely pest control four times from late this month until November, with the first treatment scheduled to be completed between the 22nd and 30th of this month.

The pest control targets a total of about 40,000 trees, including Hwanggeumneulpmnamu (Ulmus davidiana var. japonica), cherry trees, crape myrtle, and maple trees. To protect the ecological environment and minimize damage to residents, environmentally friendly certified products will be used for pest control.

Yoo Doo-seok, the mayor of Jangseong-gun, said, “We have been continuously conducting street tree pruning and pest control work every year to protect street trees and improve the urban landscape. This year as well, we will enhance the effectiveness of pest control through timely treatments.”

Meanwhile, Jangseong-gun expects more pest damage than usual this year due to abnormal temperatures and plans to focus on maintaining street trees in the area through thorough pest control work, continuous follow-up management, and monitoring activities.
