A St. Louis-area concern

Ash trees and emerald ash borer

Emerald ash borer is established in Missouri and can kill ash trees. Missouri Department of Conservation identifies signs such as bark “blonding” from woodpeckers feeding on larvae. Those signs are clues, not a diagnosis; other problems can affect ash trees too. If an ash tree is declining, ask a qualified tree professional to assess its condition and options.

See Missouri Department of Conservation’s emerald ash borer guide
