ASIAN LONG HORNED BEETLE From NYS DEC: The Asian long horned beetle, (Anoplophora glabripennis) or ALB, is an invasive wood -boring insect that feeds on a variety of hardwoods including maple, birch, elm, ash, poplar, horse chestnut, and willow. ALB threatens the health of New York's hardwood forests and negatively impacts agriculture and tourism. 4 A ALB beetles are approximately 1.5 inches long and shiny black, with white spots on their wing cases. They have black and white antennae that can be up to twice as long as their body. How You Can Help: • Do not move firewood more than 50 miles, which is the NYS firewood regulation which limits untreated firewood movement to no more than 50 miles • Obey the rules of the ALB quarantines which prevent firewood and any regulated materials from leaving those areas. See NYS Agriculture and Markets website for more information If you have a pool, you can participate in the ALB Swimming Pool Survey. Whenever you clean your pool, check your filter and skimmers for anything that resembles ALB. Send a photo of what you find to foresthealth(@dec.ny.gov Link here for more information.
