I sincerely hope Canada is able to stop this bug before it hits the US, especially Michigan. We've been clobbered by the Emerald Ash Borer, which is now affecting nearby states. Beautiful ash trees that aren't already diseased have to be removed because of this pest. With all the pine here in MI, the last thing we want is to lose more trees.
If they dont start logging off the infested areas, you won't have any trees left to lose.
There was a recent quote from an old forester :
Something like, either you log the deads trees or they burn...your choice.
