| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential effects of the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) on the Green industry and insecticide options. States that "insecticides used for control of EAB fall into three categories: 1) systemic insecticides that are applied as soil injections or drenches; 2) systemic insecticides applies as trunk injections or trunk implants; and 3) protective cover sprays that are applied to the trunk, main branches, and (depending on the label) foliage." Discusses possible strategies for effective use of each type of insecticide. States that "research suggests that best control of EAB will be obtained when treatments are initiated in the earliest stages of EAB infestation before visible symptoms are present, or perhaps even the year before trees are infested." Concludes that "it is important to understand that success in [is] not assured, and that trees will have to be treated each year. In most cases, it may be more cost-effective to remove and replace the tree." |
