Emerald Ash Borer is an exotic beetle that has killed hundreds of millions of trees in North America and cost hundreds of millions of dollars in damage and mitigation efforts.

Damage:
Here are some resources (links courtesy of Dorothy Pedersen):
- Interactive map of the spread of the pest.
- Info on the ash borer from the U of M.
- Primary treatments for the borers.
- Identifying trees.
Some suggestions by residents:
- Dorothy Pedersen and Gary Kiecker recommend SavaTree for treatments. Please contact Curtis Frandrup (952-881-3779) or Scott Anderson (612-716-6596) at SavaTree for information on their treatment plans.
- Residents of Silver Lake are discussing a joint plan for treatment. If we can get over 300 inches of diameter treatments, the cost will drop from $10 per inch to $7.50 per inch. Please contact Dorothy, if you are interested in participating in a joint plan.
