Emerald Ash Borer Threat to Georgia Ash Trees

Post Copy

If you have ash trees in your yard, this is urgent. The emerald ash borer (EAB) has been spreading across Georgia for years, and spring is when these destructive insects become active again. They attack healthy and stressed ash trees alike, and once they infest a tree, it's almost always a death sentence without aggressive treatment.

Signs of EAB damage: D-shaped exit holes in the bark, thinning canopy, and sawdust-like frass (insect debris) in the bark crevices. The problem? By the time you spot these signs, the damage is often already extensive. Early detection through regular inspections is the best defense — and the cheapest one.

Our ISA certified arborists can assess your ash trees and recommend treatment or removal options before the problem spreads to nearby trees. The investment now protects the rest of your landscape.

Do you have ash trees on your property? Have you noticed any unusual signs on them recently?
