What does treatment for scale insects cost?
Answered for Indianapolis, Marion County.
Magnolia scale is the one people call about here. In Indianapolis, in Indiana DNR's 2008 statewide i-Tree STRATUM sample inventory, silver maple was the most common street tree in Indianapolis at 14.0% of 119,036 inventoried street trees, followed by sugar maple 6.0%, hackberry 5.1%, apple 4.9% and white ash 4.9% — that ash share is a pre-EAB-collapse figure and is effectively gone since emerald ash borer was confirmed in Indiana on April 21, 2004. The big silver maples over the 1920s-50s streets are the recurring job: included bark, codominant leaders and brittle wood that sheds limbs in every wind event. Rarely kills an established tree but weakens it and makes a mess.

What to look for
Bumps on twigs that scrape off, sticky honeydew, black sooty mould on leaves and anything parked underneath.
Whether the tree can be saved
Rarely kills an established tree but weakens it and makes a mess. Heavy infestations need two seasons to clear.
Timing in Marion County
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.
