THE STATE OF OHIO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES HAS A MAJOR ALERT OUT FOR EVERYONE:
DO NOT BRING IN FIRE WOOD FROM UNKNOWN SOURCES.
DO NOT BUY YOUR FIRE WOOD IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE IT CAME FROM. THE PROBLEM IS A LITTLE BUG THAT BORES IT WAY IN HOST TREES THAT CAN BRING DOWN A WHOLE FOREST. WE ARE ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE BECAUSE OF THE OLD TREES UP HERE AND THE CONNECTION WE HAVE TO CALDWELL, WARD, AND OTHER LOCAL NATURE PRESERVES.
THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES IS ASKING ALL OHIO RESIDENTS TO REFRAIN FROM USING FIRE WOOD FROM UNKNOWN SOURCES UNTIL THEY CAN GET THIS LITTLE PEST UNDER CONTROL WHICH MAY TAKE AWHILE DUE TO THE MANY PEOPLE WHO CONTINUE TO IGNORE THEIR WARNINGS.
