Might be a different beetle down there too. Up here if you aren't absolutely miserable then the beetles will live. The past 2 years we have had 3-4 weeks of daily highs below -30° and it did knock them back, but the few years before it never got that cold (-25°max) and they flourished. A lot of fire tinder.

The mountain pine beetle in the Canadian Rockies, presumably south too, will cosntantly have swarms unless there is 3 consecutive weeks of -30°c to knock the population back. Wucks to have to endure it but it is nice when the mountains aren't all brown with dead trees that then light on fire.

Reply to comment by RedbeardRum in TIL "Hey Jude" evolved from the song "Hey Jules" which Paul McCartney wrote for John Lennon's son, Julian, to comfort him while Lennon and his wife were getting separated, He recorded first part of the song on his way to Cynthia and Julian in his Car with a recorder installed in his car's dashboard. by Knight_TheRider
