With all the scientists arborists,horticulturists, and forresters on staff in the State, Counties, Villages, Private Sector and Arboretum we hope a solution other than "positive harvesting" is in the making.

One important question, are there mills within the infested zone to process (cut and kiln dry) the wood? If not the transport of logs could easily expand the infested zone much faster than the beetle on it's own. If the logs are not kiln dried the larvae can live in the log, continuing it's life cycle.
