Gallery of Pests
Tree killing pests can be anywhere- your city street, a favorite campsite, or lurking inside your seemingly innocent firewood.
Visit The Gallery of Pests to learn to recognize tree killing insects and diseases, and do your part to prevent the spread of these devastating foreign pests by buying firewood near where you will burn it.
If you are worried you've found a pest, visit Report a Pest for a list of phone numbers to call.
