The emerald ash borer (EAB) is an invasive insect pest. EAB larvae damage ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) through their feeding activity. EAB was detected in Forest Grove, Oregon in June of 2023. State and local agencies in Oregon are organizing a response to this destructive pest. EAB has decimated ash tree populations in other regions of the North America where it is established.
