Answered for Brownsburg, Hendricks County.
Magnolia scale is the one people call about here. In Brownsburg, no published species-level street tree inventory exists for Brownsburg, so exact species counts are UNVERIFIED; what is documented is that the town replants under an approved street-tree list in Town Code Sec. 96.20, so the street canopy skews young and town-selected rather than volunteer-grown. The one region-wide certainty is that ash is effectively gone from the mix after emerald ash borer moved through Indiana. Rarely kills an established tree but weakens it and makes a mess.

Bumps on twigs that scrape off, sticky honeydew, black sooty mould on leaves and anything parked underneath.
Rarely kills an established tree but weakens it and makes a mess. Heavy infestations need two seasons to clear.
Dormant oil in late winter, or a systemic timed to the crawler stage — timing is everything with scale and a spray at the wrong week does nothing.
