True that! Eucs are an invasive scourge, even UC Berkely recommends eliminating them and replacing them with native trees (native oaks are fireproof, while eucs are firebombs).
When UC Berkeley encourages the killing of a specific tree, that is akin to anti-death penalty people saying “we hate the death penalty but kill this guy” then you know he’s a bad guy.
There have been theories that the red gum lurp psylliad that was killing off the Eucs was intentionally brought to California by environmental activists.
