Emerald Ash Borer (EAB)

Working Together to Save Trees


In partnership with the Public Works Department, Rainbow Treecare is offering residents a reduced price of $7 per-inch for EAB insecticide injections to kill the EAB beetle and slow its spread through the community. Residents should contact Rainbow directly at 952-767-6920 or through their website to make arrangements for private treatments.

Don't spread EAB to Other Counties!

Never move firewood! Always burn firewood where you buy or harvest it.

  • Firewood from any hardwood trees
  • Entire ash trees
  • Ash limbs or branches
  • Ash logs or untreated ash lumber with bark attached
  • Uncomposted ash chips and uncomposted ash bark greater than 1 inch in two dimensions.
