Emerald Ash Borer was confirmed in NY State. EAB is a small beetle with metallic green wings. It infests ash trees and kills them within 2 - 4 years. Since its discovery in Michigan in 2002, EAB has killed 50 - 70 million ash trees in the US. Protect our trees--take the time to learn about this insect and ways to halt its spread! It hasn't been detected in NJ; let's hope it stays that way!
Don'tMoveFirewood.org- did you know that one common way invasive insects travel is by the transporation of firewood? It's camping season--don't transport firewood!
