Elm Leaf Beetle Treatment in Melbourne
What Is the Elm Leaf Beetle?
The Elm Leaf Beetle (Xanthogaleruca luteola) is one of Melbourne's most destructive tree pests. These beetles and their larvae feed on elm tree leaves, causing defoliation, canopy thinning, and long-term stress to the tree.
Left untreated, an infestation can weaken your tree’s structure and appearance — and lead to costly remediation or even tree removal.
⚠️ Signs of Elm Leaf Beetle Infestation
Early detection is crucial. Look for these common symptoms:
Chewed or skeletonised leaves
Yellowing or browning of leaf edges
Beetles or larvae on the underside of leaves
Lower branches defoliating first
A noticeable decline in canopy density
If you notice any of these signs, contact a qualified arborist immediately to prevent further damage.
