• Protect Oregon Trees From Emerald Ash Borer Infestation (pnwag.net) — Emerald ash borer, a highly destructive tree pest, has now been confirmed in Tualatin, making local ash trees more vulnerable to rapid decline. Residents are urged not to move firewood long distances and to learn the signs of infestation using Oregon’s official EAB resources so they can help slow the spread and protect neighborhood trees.
