have you heard what their doing with the ash tree logs, etc...

burning them?

Just wondering if there’s any commercial use for them or if they have to be destroyed completely to stop the spread.

Thats a good question, I really haven't heard. The independent tree guys are taking them down and just grinding them up into sawdust.

The state is telling people who have places in northern Michigan and the upper peninsula to NOT take the logs up there for burning in their fireplaces. Evidently there is a new outbreak in the U.P. which they figure was caused by infected logs taken up there........

There is starting to be. They are being used to grind up into wood pellets for stoves. This is one of the very few things they are useful for.
