Devils Lake prepares for possible insect infestation harmful to ash trees

Devils Lake is preparing for unwelcome visitors in the form of a possible wood-boring insect infestation that could prove devastating to ash trees in the area. During the last week of January, an insect larva found in Fargo by city forestry staff has been confirmed to be emerald ash borer (EAB), a wood-boring beetle originally from Asia first found in the U.S. in 2002. It has since spread to 37 states and killed hundreds of millions of ash trees.
