As you may have already heard, our Ash trees in Colorado are now threatened by the Emerald Ash Borer, a destructive pest that is responsible for the demise of millions of Ash trees across the country. Learn more on our Emerald Ash Borer page here.
Arborists and scientists are trying to find out the best ways to combat this pest, and the Emerald Ash Borer University was created to help with the mission.
This spring, the Emerald Ash Borer University is hosting some Webinars this spring from February — April 2015. These informative webinars will discuss the Emerald Ash Borer, an invasive wood-boring pest, as well as other pest and disease threats to our forests and trees. If you’re interesting in learning more about tree pests and diseases, you should check out any of these free Webinars below (be sure to check here for updates to the schedule, as the below list may change)
