Three species of predatory beetles have been released to combat infestations of the hemlock woolly adelgid in the High Country region of northwestern North Carolina. They are the spring/summer predators Sasajiscymnus tsugae Sasaji (St), Scymnus sinuanodulus Yu and Yao (Ss), and the winter/fall predator Laricobius nigrinus Fender (Ln). A total of 890 adults of St have been released at three sites and adults were recovered from two of the three sites; one site was two years old. We also recovered St from a site where no releases were made by this group (Lees McRae Field Site).
