Join Nicole Keleher, DCR Forest Health Director, to learn more about southern pine beetle (SPB), a destructive insect native to the southern United States that has been expanding its range northward. This forest pest poses a significant threat to our pitch pine resources in Massachusetts. She will discuss the current status of SPB, the impact risks, and the influence of climate change. Nicole will talk about the SPB detection surveys and monitoring projects her team has planned for this year.
