The Hartford Courant has it right; firewood needs to be locally cut. Their recent article Asian Longhorned Beetle Threatens State's Forests is dead-on when it talks about needing to use firewood only cut in Connecticut. The threat to this state's forests, which are directly adjacent to neighboring states with Asian longhorned beetle infestations and Emerald ash borer infestations, is very real.
Kudos to the Hartford Courant for their thorough and accurate article on the importance of using only local wood to heat your home this winter. I hope other areas follow suit as the cold weather sets in and people start piling up firewood for the winter ahead.
