Stopthebeetle.info is a new site that asks people to pledge not to move firewood- check it out!

If it makes it to the Washington Post a day after the elections, it is probably pretty important!

Today's editorial in the Boston Globe is correct; people taking firewood to camping areas, ski-side condos, or vacation homes could devastate New England.

The Associated Press released a great article on the Asian longhorned beetle's threat to New England's trees.

The Asian longhorned beetle not only is a threat to trees, but also communities, homes, neighborhoods, and most important this week-- baseball (go Red Sox!).

Another tree threatened by movement of firewood - black walnut!

In every case of Asian longhorned beetles being discovered in North America, it was an everyday citizen who made the find.

Perhaps it was inevitable; the area that ALB has infested is much larger than originally thought.

The expense of the Asian longhorned beetle infestation in Worcester is looking very high.

EAB was recorded in a new Maryland County, Charles, earlier this month, but the media have yet to pick up the story.
