Emerald Ash Borer

Emerald Ash Borer is attacking and killing Ash Trees.  The Emerald Ash Borer is a non-native pest that has been confirmed in Moorestown, Cinnaminson, Edgewater Park and Westampton.  Click here to learn more about the Emerald Ash Borer.  Trees are pretty easy to identify:  The bark has a Diamond pattern, the seeds when present look like oar shaped wings, the leaves are compound with one at the tip and anywhere from 5 to 11 leaflets and the branches are opposite rather than alternating.  These trees are 40 to 60 feet tall.  If your tree is more than 30% dead, you may want to remove and replace.
