Emerald Ash Borer: Planning Ahead

Revised: 
8/13/2012

Emerald Ash Borer was discovered in Michigan in June 2002, Wisconsin in 2008 and Minnesota in 2009. It is a species of metallic wood boring beetle (Buprestidae) that attacks ash (Fraxinus), usually killing trees in one-three years. Since the find in Wisconsin, many printed educational resources and web sites have been developed. Join Dr. Robert Tomesh and others in a discussion about the pest problem, where information can be found, sources of educational materials and what you can do to assist your community.
