\nThe Laval Regional Environmental Council (ERC) will hold a roundtable on the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), April 23. The exercise will be held during Earth Week to review the ash tree crisis on Ile de J\u00e9sus.<\/div>\n
\n
Three panelists Pierre Desrochers Canadian Forest Service; Alain Paquette, associate researcher at the Centre for Forestry Studies at UQAM; and Daniel Boyer, forestry engineer of Laval\u2019s public works department will be on hand to talk about short, medium and long-term solutions as well as answer questions.<\/div>\n
\nLast September, the City of Laval confirmed the presence of the EAB in its territory. Inspectors found the insect in 34 of 66 traps they had installed. Prior to that, in August 2012, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) confirmed that it caught the bug in one of its traps in Laval des Rapides.<\/div>\n
\nThe city detected a strong presence of the insidious insect in Gagn\u00e9, Montceau, Bizet, Coccinelles, Christos-Karigiannis and Bigras parks as well as along the border of Trieste Street.<\/div>\n
\nThe city preventively treated 250 ash trees with the relatively new pesticide TreeAzin in the summer of 2014. It plans to do the same to another 1,000 trees this summer. <\/div>\n
\nTreeAzin, determined a pesticide by the Pesticide Management Regulatory Agency, is the most widely used product available in Canada; it is produced by the BioForest company from the neem tree seeds.<\/div>\n
\nSince TreeAzin kills insects indiscriminately. Not only will EAB larvae be affected, other insects feeding on the treated tree.<\/div>\n
\nLast winter the city felled some 1,000 ash trees that were in poor health. <\/div>\n
\nLaval boasts 5,000 public ash trees and estimates about the same number on private land.
The roundtable will take place at 7 p.m., April 23, at Pavillon du Bois\u00e9 Papineau<\/i> 3235 St. Martin Boulevard East. Space is limited. For information and to RSVP consult the event, Facebook page at Table ronde sur l\u2019agrile du fr\u00eane.<\/i><\/p>\n
