FIREWOOD
ALERT

Help stop the movement of exotic pests

DON’T MOVE FIREWOOD!

Exotic insect pests like Emerald Ash Borer are a major threat to Ohio’s 19 million acres of forest. Emerald Ash Borer, as well as other invasive insects, can become established when infested firewood is transported to new areas.

  • Only use local sources of firewood
  • Do not bring firewood from your home to your campsite.
  • If you have already brought firewood from home, do not take it back home and do not leave it - BURN IT!
