EAB on the Move in New York, Too

The emerald ash borer beetle is already in Randolph, New York, now it’s closing in on the area from the east, too.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation confirmed that an ash borer beetle was found in a purple trap box in Pembroke in Genesee County, New York.

The beetle has been confirmed in several counties in New York and Pennsylvania.

Last week, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources added 31 counties to the quarantine list. That brings to 43 the number of counties where movement of ash, including firewood, is restricted.
