Need an arborist - quick
 

The last time my "landscaper" trimmed and cleaned up, he brutally hacked the boots off a Queen Palm. My new guy just pointed out that the core is exposed and has bugs. Anyone know of a good arborist that can advise me on treatment and viability?

Try to get some of the bugs, take a picture and take it to one of the many Master Gardeners meetings. Some of them may be particularly knowledgeable in palms or would know who is.

He was very helpful to me.
