Invasive Beetle Found in Central PA
An invasive beetle that destroys ash trees has been found in central Pennsylvania.
State Agriculture Secretary Dennis Wolff said today that emerald ash borers were identified in Granville in Mifflin County.
To help slow the spread of the beetle, Mifflin County will now be included in a quarantine already imposed on five counties in western Pennsylvania.
The quarantine restricts the movement of nursery stock, green lumber and any other ash material.
