​Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle (CRB) Mitigation Solutions in Honolulu, HI

​The Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle (CRB), Oryctes Rhinoceros, is a major threat to your property and Hawaii’s precious environment.  The invasive beetles target the hearts of coconut palms, destroying fronds with their voracious appetites, eventually working their way to the center of the palm, causing death and structural failure.  Coconut palms are one of the most iconic things about Hawaii and they provide amazing aesthetic value to your property.
 
This invasive pest is native to Southeast Asia. It attacks coconut palms by boring into the crowns or tops of the tree where it damages growing tissue and feeds on tree sap. The damage can significantly reduce coconut production and eventually kill the tree.
 
The Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle (CRB) has destroyed the coconut groves of several South Pacific nations.  In 2007, a new variant of the beetle, known as CRB-G was detected in Guam.  This new type of the beetle is resistant to the past treatments for population control.  Over its 4–9-month lifespan, female beetles can lay up to 100 eggs.
