If you like the look of ash, you'd better get your furniture now. The emerald ash borer is making its way through the midwest and will probably take out all of the ash trees in the way Dutch elm disease did away with all of the elm trees.

When the borer gets into the tree, it causes enough damage to the wood that it cannot be used for furniture or anything else.

So far, about 20 million trees have been killed. There is no effective treatment for an infestation.

The states of Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana have been quarentined and cannot export ash to other states, whether as live trees or lumber. The supply will be drying up before too long.
