The Emerald Ash Borer is getting closer to Marion County. Dr. Donald Lewis, ISU Extension Entomologist, has confirmed the bug is now in Newton. Dr. Lewis suggests homeowners take their time deciding on their options, which he says are do nothing and wait and see, remove declining ashs tree and replace them with another species, or attempt to prevent the Ash Borer by treating the trees or hiring a certified applicator to treat them. He reminds listeners to be smart consumers and shop around, because fraud will happen.
