Ash Tree Identification, Trivia, Notes, References

Ash Disease: Ash Tree Borer

Ash trees are affected by disease and pests. One pest, in particular, has been especially virulent. The small 1" long beetle, called the emerald ash borer, with the scientific name of Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, is causing great alarm in parts of North America. Getting in under the Ash Tree Bark this shiny emerald green/ bluish beetle is killing the ash trees. Ash Borer picture and facts can be found here Ash Tree Borer The beetle originated from Asia was first found in North America in 2002 in the Detroit, Michigan, and across the river in Windsor, Ontario areas.

Tree Disease

A single piece of firewood can destroy millions of trees.

Transporting firewood to your cottage or campsite allows invasive species, like the emerald ash borer, to spread causing widespread damage to trees and forests.

Purchase firewood locally and look out for pest infestation. Above all, you should avoid purchasing firewood cut from the ash tree.

Ash Tree Identification

Ash Wood

Ash tree has historically played a large role in baseball. Wooden baseball bats were crafted and turned out of ash tree wood.

The problem with the wooden bat is that they would split or crack when you got good contact with the ball. Thus, baseball teams needed a steady inventory of ash baseball bats to replace the broken ones.

The ash tree still readily splits under pressure, such as from ice storm build up on the branches, as can be seen in the ash tree thumbnail photo.

Today, the aluminum bat has taken over the wood ash bat, with it's familiar tong when a home run is hit.
