    You’re welcome. I drove through a small town in SW Va this weekend that was a wasteland of dead Ash. I hope some of our bugs like Asian trees.

    Nope. I’d not heat with wood if I was confined to elm.
    Hate to see the demise of any specific species honestly. Hopefully ash can make a return in my lifetime.

    I have not noticed any damage to Elms, but will take a closer look.
