Emerald Ash Borer

The emerald ash borer (EAB), a new exotic insect pest from Asia, has become established in the Midwestern United States. Although not currently found in Iowa, a cooperative state and federal effort has developed the "Iowa Emerald Ash Borer Readiness Plan". Check out this and other information about this pest that threatens Iowa's forests. Information about the spread of EAB is also available in Spanish (see below).

A number of training sessions are being scheduled across Iowa to provide information about EAB.
