Residents may contact a certified arborist for proper diagnosis of private trees. If a tree on private property is diagnosed with EAB, residents are encouraged, but not required, to report it to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture at 651-201-6684.

Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) was recently confirmed in Minneapolis and St. Paul. This is the first infestation of the destructive pest in Minnesota. EAB was first discovered in Michigan in 2002 and has since been found in nine surrounding states. To date, there is no known treatment or widespread prevention for this insect.
