What is Beetle Killed Blue Stain Pine?
The millions of acres of dead pine trees riddled throughout the Western United States and Canada are better known as Beetle Kill Pine. The killer of these trees is the mountain pine beetle which bores into the wood, lays its eggs, and ultimately suffocates the tree by cutting off its water and nutrient supply.
The beetle carries a fungus that slowly turns the wood into different colors. Commonly known as “blue stain” the colors that appear can range from blue, purple, brown, orange, yellow, red, and pink. The blue staining fungus is purely cosmetic and does not affect the structural integrity of the wood.
