These insects have managed to eliminate close to 300,000 Ash trees in the National Capital Region in only nine years. This leaves only 80,000 ash trees left standing either due to luck or to some amount of resistance to the beetles. These forests used to have an extremely dense Ash population, having 17-18 trees per Hectare.
The emerald ash borers' larvae burrow into the bark of ash trees, causing canopy dieback and, ultimately, tree death. The half inch beetle is often challenging to detect, especially in newly ...
The invasive beetle that kills ash trees has traveled to new areas in Texas. Texas A&M Forest Service confirmed last week that the emerald ash borer is now in five counties in North and Central Texas.
The emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis), also commonly known by the acronym EAB, is a green beetle native to Asia; its larvae kill ash trees. [1] In North America, the EAB is an invasive species, highly destructive to ash trees in its introduced range.

Neoclytus caprea (commonly called the banded ash borer) is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Say in 1824. [ 1 ] It feeds on sapwood of ash, sometimes oak, and hickory.
The red-headed ash borer usually develops in recently dead or dying hardwood trees, so the most common impact on humans is damage to felled trees intended for hardwood lumber or firewood. These insects are commonly brought into homes with firewood and may emerge, but do no physical damage to the home.
Seedlings of the tree have a high tolerance to water logging [12] which may explain why the natural habitat of green ash is almost exclusively stream sides and bottomlands. The large seed crops provide food to many kinds of wildlife. [3] Green ash is threatened by the emerald ash borer, a beetle introduced from Asia.
