Doing some yard work and saw this on a tree. What's the dealy-0 with these circles on the trunk? Is it some sort of wood borer and how do I fix the problem? The tree is right next to a covered patio and would hate to lose it.

Looks like a combination of boring beetles and woodpeckers.

Maybe that little doodlebug in the 3rd picture did it. Or, maybe it was a .45 cal!

Too low (to the ground) to be a woodpecker. 99.9% sure it’s all from a wood boring beetle and probably an emerald ash borer.
