What is an Ash Borer?
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is a wood-boring insect that targets and destroys ash tree species. It will damage a tree in two to three years if left untreated. If you have an ash tree, we recommend that it be inspected and removed.

Why is an Ash Borer an Issue?
Because of their destructive inclination toward ash trees, ash borers are an issue. Because the larvae and adults feed on ash bark and leaves, they can disrupt the tree's capacity to gather water and crucial nutrients, eventually killing the trees.
