From there, it has slowly advanced across Europe and parts of the Middle East, where they have devastated the local stone pine forests. “Every year, we have a new record number of insects attacking new areas and new countries all over the world,” said Nabil Nemer, Associate Professor at the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik’s Department of Agriculture and Food Engineering
