Summary
The June 2013 Beaver Beacon announced renewed Emerald Ash Borer monitoring on Beaver Island with purple traps, agency assistance, and firewood-quarantine signs at points of entry. The report notes that a 2011 survey found no EAB in the Island’s 16 traps.
Evidence limits
This records the planned 2013 monitoring and reported prior negative survey; it does not document the 2013 trap results or establish absence of infestation.
