Disease
Killing Redbay Trees Makes First Appearance
in Mississippi (PDF | 93 KB) (Aug 12, 2009) /
The
Redbay Ambrosia Beetle has arrived in Mississippi (Aug
12, 2009)
Mississippi Forestry Commission.
The Mississippi Department of Agriculture and
Commerce (MDAC) and Mississippi Forestry Commission
have confirmed the positive identification
of laurel wilt disease in Jackson County, where
the disease was discovered killing redbay trees
in late July. Laurel wilt can spread in at
least two ways: one is via the beetle's natural
reproduction and migration. A second way is
through the sale and transport of beetle-infested
wood, a result of redbay's use as firewood
and for outdoor grilling.
