About Cinera
These small, soft-bodied insects cluster on pine needles and new growth, sucking sap and causing yellowing or distorted foliage. Cinera pine aphids (Cinera spp.) can weaken trees and attract sooty mold due to their honeydew secretion, particularly affecting evergreens in residential areas like Franklin and Brentwood. Early detection and treatment help maintain healthy, vibrant pines in Middle Tennessee landscapes.
