Join Karen Ripley, an entomologist with the U. S. Forest Service, for a presentation on the Mediterranean oak borer, an invasive pest that is active in California and recently was detected killing white oak trees in Oregon. Learn about the pest’s biology, pathway of spread, and hosts. Signs and symptoms of infestation will be highlighted as well as how to find additional information. Questions will be addressed at the end of the webinar. One pesticide recertification credit from the Washington Department of Agriculture has been requested.
This event is held via Zoom.
