Neighborhood Watch: Protecting Our State from Invasive Species
Native to Asia, EAB was first identified in the US in 2002. It has since spread to 36 states and in June was found in Forest Grove, Oregon. Less than ½ inch long and metallic green, the adult EAB lays its eggs under the bark of the ash tree where the larvae go to work, feeding on the cambium area of the tree, damaging the xylem, and cutting off nutrients from getting to the canopy of the tree. This causes the canopy to start dying (crown dieback) in the top third of the tree. The tree will eventually succumb to starvation in 3-5 years.
