This past weekend we went out of state
To help my niece and her husband
Transform their yard.
Before
After
The ash trees in the backyard
Unfortunately were infested with
The emerald Ash Borer
The trees were slowly being
Eaten to death
So they needed to come down
The Emerald Ash Borer Larvae
It eats the layer of the tree that supplies
Water and nutrients
You cans see the trail where it
The only proper way
In their township to
Dispose of them is to
Either chip
Or burn them
This is what a full grown one looks like

So of course
The men went off
To the local HD and got a chipper
Insert Tim Taylor from Tool Time
I will posting the front yard next
Too bad. :(
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame the trees were so damaged. It is great to see families helping one another. My sons are helping me with my yard.
