About the event
This short 30–45 minute webinar will explore how invasive insects like the Emerald Ash Borer, Asian Longhorned Beetle, and Spongy Moth are threatening East Kootenay forests - and how firewood is helping them spread. We’ll cover how to identify these pests, the damage they cause, and what simple steps campers, cabin owners, and backyard burners can take to stop them. This is the perfect webinar for anyone who wants to enjoy the outdoors while helping protect it.
