The Emerald Ash Borer has made its way to Moncton. If you suspect your tree has been affected, give us a call to discuss your options! Proper management and disposal of infested trees is essential to minimizing the spread to neighboring areas.

"Signs of EAB infestation usually only become apparent once a tree has been heavily infested. These signs include the loss of green colour in the uppermost leaves (chlorosis) and thinning and dieback of the crown."

The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) only attacks ash trees of the genus Fraxinus. This does not include Mountain ash.
