FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of preventing withering of pine trees caused by pests. The method includes injecting into the tree trunk a composition containing thiamethoxam, emamectin benzoate, cyclohexanone, polyoxyethylen styryl phenyl ether, water, acetone and methanol, where the amount of thiamethoxam and emamectin benzoate is selected in accordance with the size of the tree, the target pests and the extent of tree damage.
