The bad thing is, when you "Buy Local" It often doesn't mean it's a local produced product. This year when buying the little bundles of firewood at a store near where we were camped recently in both Utah, and Colorado, it turns out the wood came from Montana. Go figure...
It is probable that the firewood was treated before packaging to eradicate any insects.
In the Midwest, the transportation bans are to SLOW the advance of EAB, not to eliminate it. I'm thinking the Western States will have similar rules as EAB spreads West. In my resident County and surrounding counties, it is illegal to transport Ash firewood across County lines.
