Hey all. I have a Japanese Maple (Bloodgood) that seems to harbor some pesky, little invaders (pictures below). At this time of year, how do you go about managing this? Do you just try to ignore it and hope for the best? If it were earlier in the year, I might defoliate, but I didn't want to put the tree in too much stress as the dormant season nears (in Zone 4, so dormancy might come as soon as end of October, i.e. 2 months). Also, should I physically isolate this tree from my other trees?
