There is another way, which doesn't seem to be as palatable.

Forest Management.

Keep those pine trees growing with enough space so they have a thick cambium layer which pitches the bugs out and their populations collapse. That means thinning, which means logging.

We can't have that.

Well, OK, I don't want to log off the whole world, but some times forest management makes sense. Letting logs go to the beetles and fire doesn't, because we have 100 years of fire suppression to catch up on.

Which means great quantities of fuel on the ground.
