Welcome to the pests and diseases forum! This will replace the old "Bonsai Doctor" fill-out-the-form process on the old IBC website.

First let me introduce myself to people who don't know me: I'm Nina Shishkoff, one of the Ancient Ones of the IBC (a member since ca. 1994). In my day job, I study tree diseases for the USDA, but for many years, I've diagnosed bonsai problems here. About 85% of the questions I've gotten over the years are about why indoor junipers die. Let me solve that one right away: junipers are outdoor bonsai. Now let's move on to the other 15% of the problems. If you have a picture of your sick bonsai or a close-up of an insect, please post it here with a description of the problem. I will try my best to answer the question with the aid of any IBC'ers who may have experience with the problem and want to chime in.

Also, I have many of the pictures of critters from the old IBC. I'll be creating a "Rogues' Gallery" here that may help you ID you critter or problem so you can better ask the good Doctor how to fix it.
