Please shed some light on this conundrum: my aspen trees have broken out with a bad case of acne. Well, not all of my aspens, just a few. And not all of their branches, just here and there. Come to think of it, my aspens� usual display of brilliant fall golds were kind of “off� this year. Do you think this could have anything to do with the yellowish creepy crawlies that I’ve spied on some of the trunks for the past couple of springs? Please help me, Master Gardener, before my aspens become deathly ill. -- Aspen Hugger
