OT: All my ash trees are dead, or almost dead

Posted by gun guru on May 04, 2008 at 15:00:15 from (66.188.56.98):

That Damn Emerald ash borer bug has destroyed all of my ash trees. I have an all wooded lot. I am lucky that only about 2-3% is ash trees but that is probably 12-15 trees total all in size from 3" up to 14" in diameter.

How many of you here are in Michigan or a neighboring state? I have to believe that this bug will destroy all of the ash trees in the US in 10-20 years time due to the inablilty to restrict transport of the ash firewood and tree removal equipment. I guess the bug can fly for a mile or so to move from ash tree to ash tree.

I have a friend that had to cut down many ash trees on his 5 acre lot in Dryden Michigan 2 years ago due to this bug, Dryden is about 30 miles east of Flint Mi. The only good thing is that he was able to cut them down and log them up himself and he got a lot of firewood out of it.
But what a waste!

I would love to have someone mail me a bag of ash tree seeds so that I could replant ash trees after the bug has destroyed it all.

If you live in Michigan and have 1 or more ash trees are they dead yet? If you live outside of Michigan be sure to treat your ash trees with pesticide so you can save them.
