Bringing wood into the Lake area increases
risk of infestation
by Terry Rees
I have recently observed large piles of firewood
brought to Lake Kasshabog by well-meaning cottagers that may not be
aware of the serious threat to our hardwood trees, in the form of the
imported Asian Long horned beetle.
Firewood should not be brought from outside our area to the cottage.
The practice of moving cut wood across great distances increases the
likelihood of an introduction that could have devastating effects on
our oaks, and other hardwoods that in our region have already been
seriously stressed from defoliation and drought over the last few years.
Particularly if you are in the restricted zone in the western GTA,
you must NOT bring firewood, old pallets, or other wood materials
to Kasshabog Lake. Please see the attached
information from CFIA on
this devastating pest.
