Dr. Claire Rutledge is looking for birch infested with bronze birch borer for research.
She needs infested trees with living beetles, and, due to federal laws, needs for those trees to be in Massachusetts. As beetles are emerging soon, it would be ideal to find them in the next 2 weeks. If you are removing infested trees from a property please contact her at Claire.Rutledge@ct.gov or (203) 974-8484 and she will meet you at the job site to take the material.
