The Maine Department of Agriculture needs help to

get the word out about invasive forest insects. 

If they become established here, the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) and the emerald ash borer (EAB) will be two very serious threats to Maine’s trees and forests. The best defense is early detection. The Maine Department of Agriculture is offering training workshops to individuals who are interested in learning about these forest threats and sharing that information with others. The more people familiar with these invasive pests, the better chance we have at saving our trees. To learn more about ALB, visit www.albmaine.org. To learn more about EAB, visit www.emeraldashborer.info.
