Emerald Ash Borer
The Emerald Ash Borer is an invasive insect that kills all types of healthy ash trees. The insect was discovered in York Region in 2008 and the City of Toronto a year earlier. While the Emerald Ash Borer poses no risk to human health, it is a significant threat to our forests.
The Town of Aurora recently approved a strategy to manage the Emerald Ash Borer. Please see the info below:
