ASH BORER
Surrounding areas
Like Littleton, Englewood completed an EAB management plan last year, and has been treating eligible trees and designating others for removal. Englewood already has a subsidy program in place for chemical treatment and removal, o ering to cover 25 percent—up to $500—of the cost to the homeowner.
Lone Tree has been planning for the arrival of EAB and will look to treat eligible ash trees that are in optimal health.
Only one percent of Parker’s urban canopy is composed of ash trees, so as of now, the town is not treating for EAB prevention and is not planning on preemptively removing trees, but is monitoring for issues.
Centennial is also monitoring for EAB at City facilities, but has not been conducting preemptive treatment.

What to look for


“ e best thing to do right now is determine if an ash tree is on your property,” Lone Tree City Forester Sam Waggener wrote in a statement to Colorado Community Media.
According to the Colorado State Forest Service website, homeowners can look for compound leaves with ve to nine lea ets, diamond-shaped bark ridges on mature trees, and lea ets, buds and branches growing directly opposite from one another.
Although EAB is di cult to detect in a tree and can go years without being noticed, Mason said that homeowners with ash trees on their property can look for D-shaped exit holes, shrinking leaf size, and heavy woodpecker activity.
If a homeowner thinks they have an infestation, Mason advises that they get in contact with a local CSU Extension o ce, which can help with identi cation and next steps.
