A blast from the past. This concept is from 2009. The original drawing from that time was given to someone who works at the CNC, (Canadian National Collection). I decided to redraw it for my dad (because he loved it so much) for the sake of having a current version. Ironclad beetle laying down the law to stop the invasiveness of the Asian Longhorn Beetle and Emerald Ash Borer in North America. It was quite a hot topic back then, which explains why I drew it in the first place. It's almost embarrassing to share this, but I still had fun creating it. Yes, I know that technically, ironclad beetles are unable to fly, and the ALB + EAB could just fly away, but seeing as they're handcuffed, might restrain their ability to get away. I was very young when I initially had this idea, and I wasn't fully considering the nature of the beast. I think I chose Zopherus as a Policeman because they have a VERY tough exoskeleton, (good luck trying to stick a pin through one). My mind was and still is a weird place. Lol. I hope it makes someone smile, anyway.

3 Tips to Detect Emerald Ash Borer

[bigbluelogox]

🌨Keeping a chainsaw and a LogOX in your vehicle, especially during the winter in rural areas, can mean the difference between being stuck behind as downed tree and back on your way. As @oaksandsprouts shows, the LogOX gives you the back saving leverage you need to buck and clear logs from your path, while keeping your chain from hitting the dirt. Best of all it easily disassembles and fits into the 30” CarryOX Gear Bag for convenient storage. 👍🏼🇺🇸🪵 #TeamLogOX #repost• @oaksandsprouts Midnight timber! 🪵 Branches from one of our many dead Ash trees fell onto the driveway last night in the wind. Clearing the driveway was safe and relatively easy with our electric chainsaw, tractor, tow chain, and forestry multitool. #longdrivewayproblems #emeraldashborer #egopowerplus #kubota #isotunesfree #logox #timber #safetyfirst #smallfarm #rurallife (at Oaks and Sprouts Limited) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVi0i_Pv86b/?utm_medium=tumblr

The forests of Pennsylvania have been experiencing their own pandemic. The emerald ash borer, an invasive species from Asia, is decimating young growth of Ash Trees. The beetle larvae feed on the inner portion of bark (phloem) that transports nutrients throughout the tree, starving it. An infestation is recognizable by the holes, bark splitting/breaking, and S shaped tunnels underneath the bark. If you get a chance, check out the trees by you, I bet you'll find it. : : : : #earthscience #nature #outdoors #wilderness #environment #environmentalscience #invasivespecies #emeraldashborer #ashtree https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Xh01ypYWe/?igshid=1kopee9e70pww

Inktober 13 - Ash The Emerald Ash Borer is a tiny (8.5mm) jewel beetle that reproduces by laying eggs on the bark of ash trees. The larvae live under the bark and exit it after metamorphosis. It is native to NE Asia, where it is considered harmless because it lives in low densities. However, it has spread to Europe and North America, where it is considered a dangerous invasive species that causes significant damage to local species of ash. The beetle is dark green with light shades of copper. . . . #sketchdaily #drawdaily #drawing #nature #natureart #dailydraw #watercolor #watercolour #markers #hkartist #hkart #inkstagram #inkfeature #inkdrawing #inktober #inktober2019 #vivivainktober @vivivacolors #insect #ash #emeraldashborer #borer #jewelbeetle https://www.instagram.com/p/B3lhedjjqUt/?igshid=104f66kay23vu

My summer visit home was filled with awesomeness! My dad and I tried to carve an old ash tree that had succumbed to the #emeraldashborer - the wood was z bit hard for my feeble little arms! Cool try though, my dad always introduces me to awesome things! #canada #ontario #countrylife #chainsaw #carve #carving #tryitout #newexperience #hardworkpaysoff

We noticed many tree stumps on our walk around Lake Como today. Both of my kids were sad about the loss of the trees, but were excited to count the tree rings and list people in their lives who were as old as the trees. 🌳 #treerings #science #math #botany #tree #emeraldashborer #grief #loss #treehugger #getoutside #lifewithkids #spring #mysaintpaul #elders #ancestralwisdom #motherearth #lifedoula #teacher #lifecycle #lorax #savethetrees #lakecomo (at Como Lake (Minnesota)) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv7gIPfluCk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u7v1e90jcbep

Found this guy in my driveway this morning. I was concerned at first that #junebugs had started cross-breeding with the dreaded #emeraldashborer but turns out this is a figeater beetle. They’re not indigenous here and I’ve never seen one before. #invasivespecies #figeaterbeetle #nonnative (at Crawfordsville, Indiana)

@arborjet Launches "Saving America's Iconic Trees" #Campaign Company to donate treatment to trees across the country for insect and #diseaseprevention and overall tree health; citizens and municipalities invited to nominate beloved trees #WOBURN, Mass., April 23, 2018/@PRNewswire/ -- Arborjet Inc., a revolutionary plant health care company, today announced the launch of "Saving America's Iconic Trees," the company's latest initiative to ensure the health and longevity of the country's trees. The campaign targets America's most beloved trees – from the most awe-inspiring in terms of size and age, to those that dazzle us with their beauty and provide #shelter and comfort to a community – offering complimentary treatment to prevent #insects , #disease and #poorhealth. Throughout 2018, Arborjet will #donate high-profile treatments and host #educational events across the country. The company invites private #homeowners and state, city, town and #municipalleaders to nominate #iconictrees in their #communities for potential recognition and treatment by visiting Arborjet.com/SavingAmericasIconicTrees. Arborjet will donate environmentally responsible, fast-acting and long-lasting trunk injection treatments to these trees. These are the same treatments forward-thinking certified #arborists and over 150 municipalities use to ensure the country's #neighborhoods and #urban forests remain beautiful for generations to come. Trunk injections are delivered directly into a tree's #vascularsystem and sealed in the tree, limiting #environmental exposure and allowing for responsible treatment on both public and #privateproperties . While trees may appear imposing and strong, even the most amazing are vulnerable to disease, drought and invasive and devastating pests like the #EmeraldAshBorer (EAB). To date, #EAB has been found in 31 states and the #Canadian provinces of #Ontario and #Quebec, and is wreaking havoc on #urbanforests, already having destroyed hundreds of millions of ash trees. #Arborjet is committed to expanding its efforts to save America's iconic #trees, ash and beyond, including the following already under the company's care:

In honor of #InvasiveSpeciesAwarenessWeek I wanted to share this oldie but goodie - part of my 12-poster series on #invasivespecies in #Indiana from about 4 years ago 🐛🐞🌿🐟 It was one part of my @usi_artdesign fellowship and I had SO MUCH FUN researching all this. Still one of my favorite #biology topics. See the this whole series and the other half of my #fellowship work - a book called "Forget Us Not: Women Scientists You Should Know" - on my website artbypizzaface.net . . . www.nisaw.org #biological #nationalinvasivespeciesawarenessweek #NISAW #invasivespecies #invasives #invasion #bio #emeraldashborer #kudzu #silvercarp #fish #plants #bugs #beetles #insects #science #STEM #womenscientists #scientists #research #illustration #infographics #posters #posterdesign #popart #graphicdesign #design #artbypizzaface (at Evansville, Indiana)

This afternoon I got to see an amazing craftsman and artist, Garret Wenlandt, sculpting the base of a dead ash tree into perched owl at a local city park. #woodcarving #woodsculpture #chainsawcarving #chainsaw #commissionedart #emeraldashborer #freshcoast #doorcounty #craftsman (at Martin Park)

The lovely but deadly markings of insects on wood. There are 2 big old ash tree stumps in front of the house. The emerald ash bore beetle kills huge trees by getting in under the bark and separating the bark from the tree. #emeraldashborer #canada #ontario #outdoorlife #outdoorliving
