EUGENE – Emerald Ash Borer, or EAB for short, is an invasive wood-boring beetle that targets and kills ash trees (genus Fraxinus), including the native Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia). EAB was discovered in Washington County, Oregon, in 2022 and has since spread to neighboring Yamhill, Marion and Clackamas counties. The spread of this pest poses a threat to ash trees throughout the state.
Emerald Ash Borer training for landowners is April 11
