What Are Emerald Ash Borers?

Emerald ash borers (EABs) are tiny insects that exclusively target ash trees. This invasive species originates from Asia and is becoming a big problem across the Twin Cities region.

Adult female borers will lay their eggs in cracks and splits within the bark of an ash tree. Once the larvae have hatched, they will begin to consume the tree from the inside, carving tunnels – also known as galleries – within the wood as they eat their way to the surface. This is almost guaranteed to kill the tree.

There are a couple of signs that can indicate that your ash tree is infested with EABs. The larvae effectively prevent the tree from using nutrients and water to maintain its foliage. If your tree's leaves begin to turn yellow or are wilting and drooping, it can be a sign of ash borers.

Once EABs are present in an area, they will spread rapidly, so protecting your ash trees is incredibly important. Thankfully, Pro-Tree Outdoor Services can offer some treatment options to help guard your ash trees against these infestations:

  • Removing infected trees from the area
  • Administering proven treatments as injections to guard against EAB eggs
