October 27, 2005, the 29th
Annual Forest Health Review was
held in Orillia. This event provides
an opportunity for forestry
professionals to hear updates from
provincial and federal specialists on
the state of forest health across
Ontario.
Unfortunately one forest pest has
dominated the agenda for a couple of
years and this year was no exception.
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) has
been in the news again, with
infestations discovered on Walpole
Island, in several locations in
Lambton County along the Canadian
side of the St. Clair River and most
recently, in Elgin County adjacent to
Highway 401 near Dutton.
Expansion of the range of this
pest is not a surprise. It does fly and
scientists estimate there are over
seven million infested ash trees west
of the St. Clair River in Michigan.
Of more concern is potential for
transport on logs or firewood, which
is likely the source of the Dutton
infestation. Field staff estimate the
insect has been at the Dutton location
for three years.
One frustrating aspect of the EAB
is that there is no effective early
detection method — infestations are
usually only found when tree decline
becomes evident. Currently Essex
and Chatham -Kent are under a
