EAB Resources and External Links
Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is a destructive pest that wreaks havoc on ash trees. Native to China and Mongolia, this invasive species has spread across the United States, decimating ash tree populations in its wake1.
The EAB kills ash trees by consuming the tissues beneath the bark. Since its first detection in Detroit, Michigan, in 2002, it has destroyed tens of millions of true ash species across more than 25 states.
Unfortunately, all species of North American ash are susceptible to EAB attacks. Once an ash tree comes under attack, its chances of survival are slim. The EAB is so destructive that it has put eight billion North American ash trees at risk.
The Emerald Ash Borer Information Network is a valuable resource for information on EAB. Similarly, the Arbor Day Foundation provides comprehensive information on the EAB, including its origin, spread, and impact.
Understanding the signs and symptoms of EAB infestation, as outlined by Wisconsin DNR, and differentiating common wood borers of ash trees, as explained by Rutgers University, can help in early detection and management.
While EAB is the most infamous, other wood-boring insects also affect ash trees. For example, the lilac/ash borer is a native insect to North America and a common wood borer found in ash throughout Colorado.
In conclusion, the Emerald Ash Borer is a significant threat to ash trees in the United States. Early detection and swift action are crucial to managing this invasive pest and preserving our precious ash trees.
