Emerald Ash Borer 

What is it?

Emerald Ash Borer is a small metallic green beetle that burrows into and kills healthy Ash trees.

Where is it?

It has been detected in two trees in the North Park Rd and Wood St. area of Brantford.

What does it mean?  What impact will it have?

Over the next several years, Emerald Ash Borer will spread throughout Brantford attacking and killing healthy Ash trees.  The City arborists will be surveying and managing Emerald Ash Borer in trees along streets and in parks; residents are encouraged to contact an arborist or a pest control company for help in preserving their trees.
