Emerald Ash Borer | What is Ailing This Tree? Part 1

The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) impacts ash trees of the Fraxinus genus in the olive and lilac families. All ash trees are vulnerable to EAB, but Tacoma ash trees have not been affected yet! This makes it all the more important for us to be attentive to the signs of EAB and take preventative measures! Important things you can do are:
1. Learn how to identify ashes
2. Learn how to identify EAB presence.
3. Use firewood close to where you are having your fire.
