Hunting the Emerald Ash Borer

Photos by Barry Wallace

Many Ash trees along the main roads in King Township are sporting the signs seen in the top photo, on their trunks, while what appear to be a triangular, green, box kite is suspended in the tree branches above the sign (lower photo above).   The project is an attempt to get a handle on on the presence of the deadly Emerald Ash Borer, which has decimated thousands of Ash trees in southern York Region over the past several years.   Below, a closer view of the insect trap shows many insects caught but only the experts can determine the presence and number  of the target insect.   The bottom photo shows a trap that was a victim of last Friday's punishing winds and rain.   More info is available at www.york.ca.

Schomberg ~ 126 units

King City ~ 138 units

Condominium apartment units in the two developments pictured above total 264 , which if occupied later this year by two people each, would add 528 new residents to the township.   528 new residents represents a 2.7% increase in population in just these two buildings alone.   'Oh the times they are a changin'.
