Our state forester, Dr. John Ball, USD, predicts all no. american ash dead, extinct within 30 years, with human movement of the wood. 75 % of new outbreaks are in camping areas.
EAB has a natural fly - spread rate of about 12 miles/ year. With the openness of the Great Plains as a buffer, vast distances between those trees he stated that the west should be, could be spared for much longer.
Sadly, someone carried infected ash wood to a camp in Colorado. It wasn't a logging truck.
Please, do not be the one to ------- hurry the spread.
