Save the Trees

It’s time to save the trees.

That’s the word from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources as it urges people beware of the emerald ash borer.

In 2003 they killed thousands of ash trees.

WBOC reports that the destructive insect has been found in Queen Anne’s, Talbot and Dorchester counties.

Signs include increased woodpecker activity or the thinning of leaves.
