Creating Snags for Wildlife Rebecca Cahall FS 533 March 15, 2007

Where are the snags? Limited in forested landscapes –Management effects

Creating snags Herbicide Inoculation with fungi Girdling Pheromone baiting Topping –Saw or explosive

Success = Killed treesPersistedForaging Nesting Herbicide +++/ - Inoculation - + Girdling Pheromone / - Topping Effective +Used

And the best method for creating snags Topping trees below live crown Improvements? ~Combine topping with pheromone baiting
