When it comes to the Emerald Ash Borer, inspect and treat your trees early— or lose them.
If you live in an area where mature trees are abundant you are going to find some variety of Fraxinus, more commonly known as the Ash tree. Ash trees are popular trees in landscapes, parks, and lining city streets because they are easy to care for and provide ample shade.
For the past two decades, though, this species has been under attack by a wood-boring beetle known as the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB).
