Forest Pest Identification and Mitigation
Identification of a forest pest is the critical first step landowners must take when determining a solution to an insect infestation.
Some of the most common forest pests that Montana landowners must deal with are the western spruce budworm, Douglas-fir tussock moth, Douglas-fir bark beetle, mountain pine beetle, and the fir engraver. Modern Forest Management, LLC is here to facilitate forest management for landowners by identifying the specific forest pests affecting the property and providing a solution that best fits the landowner’s goals and budget.

General Forest Consulting
Start your path to a healthier forest.
We are always looking for more opportunities to provide our clients with the services that they require. If you are looking to conduct a project in your forest but are unsure where to start I recommend contacting us and schedule a site visit to get you started on the path to a healthier forest.
We have borrowed forests from our children’s children, not inherited them from our parents’ parents. We must use our accumulated knowledge and experience, to conduct an ethical audit on the decisions we make today about changing the way we manage forests.
To do otherwise would be unethical.
