The state of Ohio just expanded its emerald ash borer quarantine to include 14 more counties -- and they mean business.
Fines are up to $4,000 for moving ash trees, parts of ash trees, and all hardwood firewood into or out of the restricted 67 counties in Ohio. Just one more reason not to move firewood!
But no matter what state you live in, the lesson is the same: Moving firewood helps tree-killing pests like the emerald ash borer move from one town to the next.
