Biological EAB Control

"Tiny, stingless parasitic wasps could be released in Michigan this summer as a biological control for the emerald ash borer, which has claimed more than 20 million ash trees here and in other states. The proposal is to use three kinds of insect parasitoids that kill the emerald ash borer in China, where it is native. It would be the first widespread use of biological controls for a wood-boring insect that, if unchecked, threatens the nation's 7.5 billion ash trees.Michigan might recruit wasps to destroy emerald ash borers."
